Thank you Parley for the Oceans for the feature! We're honoured to be part of the material revolution, collaborating with nature to shape a more sustainable future. Learn more about one of our founders, Maurizio Montalti, our journey and how biology inspires innovative materials like ephea™️ and MOGU, in the latest Parley for the Oceans interview: https://lnkd.in/g6Rnu54p #fungi #mycelium #biotechnology #innovation #growingmaterials #fermentation #biofabrication #SQIM #ephea #epheamycelium #mogu #mogumycelium #MyceliumUnbound #MaterialRevolution #SustainableInnovation
Caring enough to slow down and pay attention to the unseen is one of the grandest forms of love. To be observant of the world’s curiosities is one thing, but to learn from them is to open an invitation of infinite possibility - one that lends hope towards a better future. It’s time to take notes from the natural world’s most talented creatives - watching and borrowing from the mysteries that these scientists and designers are constantly weaving, hiding in plain sight. 🫣 Some people in our world are actively listening. One of them is Marizio Montalti, cofounder of SQIM, a company collaborating with nature to design a fungal future. SQIM has two key strands of its business – MOGU, which creates acoustic panels and flooring made entirely of fungal mycelium and #ephea, a leather-like material that can be used in fashion and has already been adapted by Balenciaga for a coat in its AW22 collection.🍄 Learn more about how biology can help redesign the world in Parley for the Oceans latest Material Revolution interview. https://lnkd.in/gPgkTRaH V: @yeweijun98 & @laurent_nam
