Welcome Biomimicry San Diego!

We are excited to bring the newest Biomimicry Regional Network into the fold! 

Biomimicry San Diego was founded by Clean Tech Leader Jacques Chirazi, myself, and Science Illustrator and National Geographic Explorer Nan Woodman. Today, our group includes Scripps Institute of Oceanography Marine Biologist Lauren Linsmayer, Industrial Designer Jo Fleming, and BioEngineer Leon Wang. We are a killer team! You can find out all about us at http://biomimicrysandiego.org/

Biomimicry San Diego is a local organization working to bring the biomimicry approach to innovation and human problem solving. 

As a regional network of Biomimicry 3.8, our mission is to empower the San Diego region, through education and community engagement, to sustainably emulate the effective 'designs' that have evolved here to solve to exactly the same challenges we face.  

Biomimicry San Diego is dedicated to reconnecting people with nature, and aligning human systems with biological systems. Our vision is a high-tech economy where human and biological system designs flow together seamlessly.

Our team offers education and consulting to apply biological insights to systematic sustainability challenges. Our collaborative partnerships and services support interdisciplinary dialogue across industry sectors and regions, while re-connecting all of us to the local ecosystem that supports us.
