Chemistry Consulting

for sustainable product development

Hello! Nice to meet you

Hi, I’m Emilie — a chemistry consultant helping purpose-driven companies transform scientific ideas into sustainable, functional products.

With a background in polymer science, supramolecular chemistry, and green materials, I bring over a decade of expertise in R&D, innovation strategy, and sustainable product development. I help startups and companies turn complex chemistry challenges into practical, scalable, and environmentally responsible solutions, so that they can commercialize impact-driven solutions and make the world a better place

How I bring value to your venture

I support you in developing your first prototype or minimum viable product (MVP), using a science-based, cost-effective, and sustainable approach. I help you source your ingredients, in a cheap, local, reliable way, translate chemical and physical processes into achievable steps to build at small scale, in a low-risk way, your first product or prototype. Whether you’re creating a new material, improving an existing formula, or exploring how to reuse industrial by-products, I provide:

  • Materials formulation expertise: I use benefits from how ingredients interact chemically and physically to build efficient, stable, functional products that your company can scale.

     

  • Sustainability insight: I apply green chemistry principles to reduce your costs,  your environmental impact and improve safety in your workplace.

     

  • Intellectual property awareness: I advise you on what can be patented, and what’s technically or commercially viable.

     

  • Translational R&D experience: With my experience in both environments, I bridge the gap between academic research and real-world industrial applications.

     

You leave with a clear path forward: a validated formulation with sourced ingredients and cost estimate, a clearer patent strategy, a concept ready for funding, early-stage commercialization, or informed iteration.

“Emilie has supported our selection of optimal polymer recipes for electrospinning, drawing on her expertise in polymer chemistry and biopolymers. She is highly collaborative and proactively engages in hands-on work and has strong academic research and literature analysis capabilities.”

Combining academic expertise and start-up agility to build your MVP efficiently

  • Scientific expertise: Master’s in polymer science and a PhD in supramolecular chemistry from Sorbonne University, Paris.

  • Hands-on innovation: Experience working on patented self-assembling gel systems, lignocellulosic materials, and biomimetic materials inspired by silk and wood fibers.

  • Industry-savvy: Former chemistry consultant for tech transfer, with insight into regulatory pathways, market applications, and IP strategy.

  • Sustainability-driven: Extensive work with bio-based and circular materials, including cellulose, emulsions, and industrial by-products.

  • Entrepreneurial mindset: I’ve launched a small upcycling craft business from scratch, turning textile waste into new, functional items. This practical experience informs my approach to product development: lean, creative, and user-focused.

I help startups overcome chemical related challenges that slow down their product development.

I want to empower sustainable startups’ research teams, and small manufacturers to innovate with chemistry, while staying aligned with their environmental and social values. I help start ups overcome chemistry related challenges and accelerate their product development, in order to achieve funding or early commercialization. I believe science can serve both people and the planet, and I'm here to help you make that happen.
