We hope you enjoy this pre-recorded conversation with Robert Suarez, a leading expert in bio-informed innovation and pioneer in applying nature's principles to business challenges.
While many see biotechnology as limited to healthcare applications, Robert will reveal how biological principles can transform every industry - from manufacturing and computing to resource extraction and supply chain management. During this interactive session, you'll discover: - How bio-informed innovation is transforming industries beyond healthcare - How nature's principles can drive business resilience and adaptation - Real-world examples of companies turning waste into valuable resources - Practical approaches to implementing bio-inspired solutions - Why local, responsive manufacturing could reshape global supply chains This discussion is a preview of our upcoming Future of Biotech program in San Diego (and virtually online) from May 7-9. Together we'll explore how biotech will disrupt every industry in the next 10 years.

Game-changing ideas begin by seeing the possibilities for a sustainable world reflected in the living systems that surround us. That’s what we celebrate each year in the Biomimicry Global Design Challenge - a competition that asks innovators to create radically sustainable human designs inspired by the natural world.

In the spirit of reconnecting with the natural world that surrounds us, (and as we are home, looking for more things to do other than binge-watch Netflix), our team has put together some of our most favorite biomimicry activities to share with our wonderful community.Through these activities, we hope to give you a greater sense of our Biomimicry Ethos and to learn how to tap into nature’s wisdom. How does nature create resiliency? How does nature communicate? How does nature embed sustainability in all of its systems? Via The Morpho Institute
