Lorenzo Sivillica

I understand what companies make, and what makes them valuable.

  • Science-level understanding of companiesChemicals, pharma, materials and energy, judged on their substance.
  • Turning complexity into decisionsStructured, quantitative analysis: many variables, the few drivers that matter, one clear recommendation.
  • From idea to realityI don't stop at the analysis. I co-founded Ambrio, built the product myself and work AI-native.

Two languages, one degree

Most people speak one of these languages. I was trained in both.

MSc and BSc in Chemistry & Business Studies at the University of Zurich: chemistry, pharma, business strategy, procurement and quantitative decision-making.

Green hydrogen is a cost question

For my bachelor's thesis I synthesised and analysed water-splitting catalysts and assessed whether green hydrogen is feasible.

Chemistry decides what is possible. Economics decides what scales.

Cost
Efficiency

Illustrative: better catalysts move both.

Many variables, one recommendation

I built the framework and decision tool behind this: life cycle assessment and techno-economic analysis in one model, turning many variables into a few value drivers, process improvements and one recommendation.

Master's thesis with KUORI GmbH, on polymer process pathways.
