#49: Regenerative Design for a Circular Economy in Buildings & Construction with Ehab Sayed

Getting In the Loop: Circular Economy | Sustainability | Closing the Loop - A podcast by Katherine Whalen - Mondays

It’s the last episode in our series in partnership with the International Society for the Circular Economy, and I’m so excited to introduce Ehab Sayed who is today’s guest. This episode has it all: circular materials, circular design, and circular business models! You will learn about how Ehab’s company Biohm is using bio-based materials to create a company founded on circular economy principles. Discover how Biohm is revolutionizing the construction industry with mycelium (which comes from mushrooms!), other plant-based materials, and circular design strategies like modularity. Plus, find out more about Ehab’s upcoming keynote for the inaugural (digital) conference of the International Society for the Circular Economy (IS4CE) (July 6-7, 2020). Resources and links discussed in this episode can be found at gettinginthelooppodcast.com. Getting in the Loop + International Society for the Circular Economy Team Up!
