This account narrates polyolefin catalyst research at the Research Institute Interdisciplinary Research Center for Refining & Advanced Chemicals (IRCRAC). We particularly address catalyst performance and kinetic evaluation, novelty in supported metallocene catalysts, the apparently absurd residual catalyst structure and solid‐state electronic environment, illustration of supported metallocene catalyst active site distribution thru model and experiment, preparation of spheroidal MgCl2 support, and catalytic synthesis of energy‐saving drag reducing UHMW polymers using local petrochemical feedstock. Each area has been assessed from the product development perspective. Our PO catalyst research aligns with Saudi Arab's Vision 2030 National Strategic Plan (NSP). We also present a circular research concept which shows how product‐driven research with a commercial driving force can significantly advance fundamental PO catalyst chemistry to valuable applications for Saudi Arabia. Finally, we focus on establishing spinoffs using local raw materials. We highlight the role, to be played by researchers, R&D management, and potential investors, to develop the appropriate innovation diffusion culture. The critical need is to understand why an innovation will fail to be marketed. We particularly stress the importance of conducive sociology (environment), psychology (mental state), and mindset (preparedness to make and accept changes) that precede innovation and technology.
