© International Synergies LimitedVersion date 30 June 2014
Symbiosis Definition:
‘An interaction between two different organisms living in close physical association to the advantage of both’
Concise Oxford Dictionary, 8th Edition

What is Industrial Symbiosis?
• Numerous academic definitions...
In essence:
• Industrial symbiosis is a systems approach to a more sustainable and integrated industrial economy that identifies business opportunities to improve resource utilisation (materials, energy, water, capacity, expertise, assets etc)
