Om Michel Wolfstirn

Etter 8 år som ingeniør i oljebransjen bestemte Michel Wolfstirn seg for å balansere karmaen sin ved å forlate oljebransjen. Etter det har han co-gründet BiomimicryNorway, en organisasjon med formål om å promotere bærekraftig innovasjon inspirert av naturen, også kjent som biomimicry. Han holder workshops om biomimicry og sirkulær økonomi både for akademia og næringslivet, og hjelper bedrifter å finne bærekraftige løsninger til tekniske eller sosiale utfordringer. Foredragene kan holdes på både norsk og engelsk, og kan skreddersys.

Foredrag med Michel Wolfstirn

Sustainable innovation: what we can learn from nature

With 3.8 billion years of R&D, nature has tested a bunch of tricks and come up with really smart solutions to a number of challenges. Some of these challenges we also face in human made design and in our societies. Discover how nature has been a source of inspiration for very innovative products, services and organisations, and find out how it can inspire you on your journey to sustainability.

Circular economy: how does it work?

The way we currently make things is not sustainable. Our economy is still very much linear: make, use, waste. But what if waste was a resource, either for nature or new products? That's what the circular economy is all about, creating new opportunities out of what we produce so we can become sustainable!
