In recent years, the race to find alternatives to traditional leather has sparked a surge of innovation in the startup world. Yet, despite the buzz, these alternatives have struggled to gain significant market traction. What’s standing in the way of widespread adoption?? ? With these types of conversations driving the curation of the Biofabricate Summit, this article discusses the importance of bringing design talent in early on, and why it’s no longer a ‘nice to have’ but a ‘must have?. Penned by our CEO Suzanne Lee for the launch of the Biofabricate Membership back in September, we’d love to know your thoughts too?

Our Chief Design Officer Dr. Amy Congdon, PhD recently joined?Ecosystems: The Podcast. The discussion focused on how biofabrication has the power to transform industries like fashion and consumer goods, by offering sustainable materials and ingredients cultivated from living organisms. Amy shared thoughts on bioinnovation’s potential to reduce our dependence on petrochemicals to support a circular, regenerative future. She also spoke to the complexities of scaling and the need for cross sector collaboration: “We’re on the verge of a materials revolution—where living organisms can create sustainable solutions, and the challenge is scaling these innovations responsibly.” Tune in to learn how brands are adopting biofabricated materials, the hurdles to market, and the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration between designers, scientists and beyond. ??
