Today's CEO Leader in STEM: Andrew N. Liveris of Dow Chemical
Andrew N. Liveris is the President, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of The Dow Chemical Company, a global specialty chemical, advanced materials, agrosciences and plastics company based in Midland, Michigan with 2012 annual sales of approximately $57 billion. Here is a quote from our Q&A with Andrew: "Today, I am more convinced than ever that the chemical sciences are elemental to enabling the intersection of humanity with our planet. With the global population expected to balloon to 9 billion people by 2050, challenges such as clean water, affordable medicine and sustainable housing need to be addressed. That is why we must help this next generation of chemical engineers and scientists to innovate and solve these problems in a way that protects – and even improves – our quality of life on this planet."
