Bio

Dr. Nabil Nasr is an internationally-recognized leader in the effort to build a regenerative, sustainable industrial economy through research and education. Systems thinking, technological possibility, and interdisciplinarity are cornerstones of Nabil’s work. As an expert advisor and delegate to a variety of forward-looking organizations, Nabil is an authoritative voice on the role of sustainability research and technology in attaining a more prosperous economy.

Over the course of two decades, Nabil’s efforts as a leader and an educator have led to a series of unique research centers, initiatives, and educational programs at RIT that are dedicated solely to the advancement of sustainable industrial systems. Today, RIT’s Golisano Institute for Sustainability (GIS) is a testament to those efforts.  

Under his leadership, RIT has received many prestigious awards and recognitions from organizations like the Brookings Institution, the U.S. Department of Commerce, the State Science and Technology Institute (SSTI), and the New York State Governor’s Office.

Nabil’s knowledge and influence have been recognized by many prestigious international bodies. The Asia-Pacific Remanufacturing Cooperation Forum honored him with the Most Influential Expert on Remanufacturing Award and is an Institute of Industrial and Systems Engineers (IISE) Fellow. Over the course of his career, he has keynoted hundreds of events around the world, been appointed to several influential boards and committees, and frequently represented the United States in international forums, including the U.N. Environment Programme’s International Resource Panel (IRP), World Trade Organization (WTO), and the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD).

Career Highlights:

  • Established the world’s first university-based remanufacturing research and development hub at RIT in 1997.
  • Launched the Center for Integrated Manufacturing Studies at RIT in 2002, which increased the competitiveness of U.S. manufacturing.
  • Co-founded Vnomics, a vehicle-performance monitoring company, which launched from his patented technology.
  • Co-founded the Remanufacturing Industries Council (RIC), an alliance that supports the remanufacturing industry.
  • Edited Remanufacturing in the Circular Economy, a groundbreaking publication on remanufacturing with a focus on its potential for resource efficiency and the circular economy.
  • Co-authored a report for the U.N. IRP that introduces a new concept—value-retention processes—for the strategic deployment of diverse resource recovery methods within a circular economy.
  • Led the winning proposal efforts that resulted in the largest research consortium in the United States, the REMADE Institute, where he leads today as CEO.

“In my 50 years as a university faculty member, department head, dean, vice president, and president, I have interacted and partnered with hundreds of faculty and academic administrators. Very few can match Nabil Nasr’s constellation of attributes: vision; entrepreneurial ingenuity, imagination, and creativity; work ethic; networking, bridging, and partnering with government, academia, and business; and humble modesty.”
