Zeri has been ranked #7 in 2016, as one of the top ten most innovative policy 
think tanks in the world ​by the  University of Pennsylvania
Zero Emissions Research & Initiatives (ZERI) is a global network of creative minds seeking solutions to world challenges. The common vision shared by the members of the ZERI family is to view waste as resource and seek solutions using nature's design principles as inspiration. We believe that time has come to go beyond the global economy where the pursuit of economies of scale and ever lower costs to earn more money needs to evolve to an economy capable of responding to the needs of all. We also need to go beyond the green economy, where renewable energy cannot compete without subsidies, and whatever is good for our health and the environment costs more. Time has come to respond to the basic needs of all with what we have, introducing innovations that change the business model to the point that the best is cheap and the necessary for life is free - just like the commons used to be. 

The ZERI network of 38 organizations worldwide serves as an antenna in the world economy identifying the innovations benchmarked somewhere, spotting early on the high growth industries of the next decade. When there is a crisis, and assets are stranded, many businesses suffer, but some thrive. Which are the clusters of primary and secondary sectors that are generation the value and provide for the jobs of the future? Which are the platform technologies that will change life for the better? With representations on four continents, with nearly 200 projects that have demonstrated over the past 20 years where the opportunities are, ZERI offers insights to government on which sectors to attract, to companies which market niches to focus on, and to communities how to secure the continued build-up of social capital. 

Whereas ZERI sets forth the philosophy, the Blue Economy initiative, presents this philosophy in action. Gunter exposes thousands of (would be) entrepreneurs to portfolio's of new business models every day.
