We attempt to take a strategic view of the development and application of HTE techniques across a broad spectrum of chemical, material and earth sciences, looking for unifying assumptions and approaches. We consider why much of the development of HTE technologies and techniques, as well as the majority of their application, have taken place in industry or in institutes or centers working closely with industry. And we look for commonalities and synergies across diverse HTE application areas, taking examples from the energy, catalysis, formulations and biotechnology fields.
