"World leader in power storage design, production, research, operations, technology and applications.” Lithium Valley is a co ... ncept, not a location or mineral. The strategic priorities and aspirational goals are to proactively facilitate the development of Lithium Valley by supporting and encouraging the growth of local and international companies in the sector. This can be achieved through the relentless pursuit of industrial symbiosis within Lithium Valley. Industrial Symbiosis is how a network of diverse organizations can foster eco-innovation and long-term culture change, create and share mutually profitable transactions - and improve business and technical processes. Although geographic proximity is often associated with industrial symbiosis, it is neither necessary nor sufficient—nor is a singular focus on physical resource exchange. Strategic planning is required to optimize the synergies of co-location. In practice, using industrial symbiosis as an approach to commercial operations – using, recovering and redirecting resources for reuse – results in resources remaining in productive use in the economy for longer. This in turn creates business opportunities, reduces demands on the earth’s resources, and provides a stepping-stone towards creating a circular economy. Strategic Focus 1.
