  • Learning from nature - Stefano Semprini

    Learning from nature - Stefano Semprini
    Jun 23 2026
    Why do we keep buying new iPhones every 1-2 years while building cruise ships that cost the earth? Working in the renewable energy sector, we are always chasing impact through bigger systems and larger projects. When we encountered biomimicry, we see it as a fresh lens to reframe problems. It’s about asking: what can nature teach us to create systems that are regenerative, not extractive? In this conversation with Stefano Semprini, we explore regenerative agriculture, community-driven projects, rethinking education, and the ongoing journey of learning. Seeing ourselves as part of ecosystems is revolutionary.
