Lorenzo Costanzo
Product developer and Biomimicry Educator
Planet Srl and AConnection
Driven by an early fascination with materials and their potential for innovation, I dedicated my sustainability-driven journey through academia and industry. Fueled by a deep connection to nature, I worked in the outdoor industry to develop eco-friendly products aligned with my values. My compelling need to make worthwhile and impactful innovation led me to shift my focus to biomimicry, regenerative systems, and de-growth for a sustainable future.
I’m currently involved in two main projects: creating a course to reconnect people to Nature, leveraging on Biomimicry and forest bathing, and offering them tools to engage in action to to better for our Planet. The other focuses on creating technologies for water desalination to support reforestation projects. I believe in the power of networks, especially cross-industry. Similar to the collaborative harmony found in nature, networks can lead to fruitful collaborations. I use this belief to promote purposeful action, shaping a harmonious future for both humanity and the planet.
I believe that using different communication strategies, including movies and short films, will allow to bring emotional aspects of the need to reconnect with Nature to a wider audience.
