Focusing on organizations that constitute urban resilience systems and networks, it maps the contributions of academic institutions, established multinationals, and entrepreneur firms in environmental, material, and related life sciences. It then develops a model of strategy and governance for organizations to invest in and implement new environmental material science projects. This book provides researchers with a framework based on management theories of R\u0026amp;D and resource allocation for resolving urban issues. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eEllie Okada\u003c\/b\u003e long served as a professor of management who continues to specialize in management theory.
