The rate at which buildings are going up is fast accelerating and this presents significant challenges as an industry that is highly wasteful, whilst intensively using valuable materials. Kåre Stokholm Poulsgaard is Head of Innovation at GXN and works with applied design research in architecture through the development of strategies for informed design across 3XN architects and GXN innovation. He is interested in research and innovation in the built environment, specifically in the ways digital technology impacts human well-being, work, and learning and what this means for design strategy. Richard Boyd is a senior materials consultant at Arup. He became an engineer to deliver sustainable development, and has chosen to focus on making construction projects ready for a carbon-constrained future. He has lead several research and consulting projects applying circular economy principles to buildings and infrastructure; the objects which consume more resources than anything else on the planet. His experience covers the design, construction and operation stages of these assets and derives from a diverse background in manufacturing, engineering design, international development, construction and research. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thank you for watching this video.

Nature has spent 3.8 billion years developing solutions to just about every design challenge that has ever existed. The field of Biomimicry encourages designers, engineers and other creators and makers to look to nature for inspiration when it comes to designing and producing the products that we use every day. But what does Biomimicry actually look like in practice? In this conversation, two experts on the topics, Richard MacCowan and Veronika Kapsali break down what Biomimicry actually looks like in practice. -------------------------- Thank you for watching this video.

The circular economy is much more than recycling or just redesigning our products. It’s about transforming the way our economy works - moving from take, make and waste to eliminate, circulate and regenerate. The opportunity is clear and sizeable, and the level of ambition stated in 2021 provides a strong sense of direction. But ambition alone is not enough, and translating ambition into action will require many things, including design, business models, regulations, incentives, and new finance models. Join us in this episode, live from The Roundhouse in London, as we look at some of the fastest-growing circular economy companies and key actors shifting the system and accelerating the transition to a circular economy. Speakers featured: Aline Casagrande, Circular Packaging Global Director, Ab-InBev José Manuel Moller, Founder and CEO, Algramo Jessica Viera, Vice President, Sustainability, Apeel Sciences Marie Castelli, Head of Public Affairs, Back Market Jamie Butterworth, Founding Partner, Circularity Capital Safia Qureshi, Founder and CEO, CLUBZERØ Oriana Romano, OECD Lamia Sbiti, Business Transformation Manager, ReLondon David Jackson, Director of Marketing and Public Affairs, Winnow ------ Thank you for watching this video.

The 1980s ushered in an era of "neo-liberal" economics, granting markets and corporations vast power, which led to escalating wealth inequality. A new global movement, Community Wealth Building, is now pushing back, fighting to democratize the economy and build wealth for the many. This movement is taking hold in diverse locations worldwide.

Renowned journalist Laura Flanders, host of The Laura Flanders Show on public television, will explain why this growing movement for a democratic economy may be the most important economic movement of our time. Flanders is an Izzy-Award winning independent journalist and bestselling author.
