Innovation inspired by nature

We operate as a network of people and projects, redefining and reinventing organizations and leaders, processes, products and services through a unique methodology combining Biomimicry Thinking + Systems Thinking + Agile.

Conscious innovation along with biomimicry helps companies become more responsible, innovative, sustainable and directly contributes to building up the companies of the future now.

Our Conscious Innovation Cycle combined with our unique methodology creates results with a positive impact. A sustainable world already exists and we translate nature’s successful strategies to co-create innovative solutions for your company and leadership.

But what is biomimicry?

Biomimicry is the practice of looking to nature for inspiration to solve design problems in a regenerative way. Nature as a model, a measure and a mentor when it comes to innovation.

That way, biomimicry can take its inspiration from the 3.8 billion years of evolution in nature – which is validated every day. It is the perfect bridge between science and the current demands of the world.

Bio means life, mimesis means imitation. Biomimicry is, therefore, a conscious attempt to imitate life’s genius, nature’s genius! Take a look at our presentation at Tedx Mauá to learn more about this type of innovation.

Clients

See what Our Clients Say About Us

I never fail to be impressed by the disruptive simplicity of biomimicry. In theory, there is nothing simpler than turning to Nature to solve everyday issues, but we've become so disconnected from it, that listening to Amazu's lectures has created countless insights that have been useful - both in my personal life and career. The decision to involve Amazu in the company and discuss topics internally such as 'living organizations' and 'technology and innovation aligned to sustainability' has given us so many ideas and new projects. We are so keen to inspire and inform others that we also have brought a little bit of Biomimicry and Amazu to our clients.

When I found out about biomimicry, I was struck by the idea and its transforming potential for design projects. I was keen to look into the subject further, and it was thanks to the course by Giane, that we realized it could enrich the projects that Néktar works on. We look to Nature for inspiration, not only for solutions to projects but also about how to organize the business. Using what Amazu and Giane have given us has only driven us to try to utilize biomimicry within our business methodology.

Amazu is a charming combination of biomimicry and Giane and it reminds us of what is natural. What was already there before we decided what was normal, to be normal. This reminder of what is essential, by looking at Nature using a structured method, enables us to carry out a genuinely cross-cutting exercise. Amazu makes important changes possible, for businesses, organizations and society.”

Nature has always been my main inspiration for my designs. My work as a fashion designer is directly connected to the study of colors, shapes and textures and these are the basic ingredients in Nature itself. When I was lucky enough to discover Biomimicry through Giane Brocco, I was delighted to realize that Nature was not just an inspiration for creative designers like me, but it could be an inspiration for technology and innovation throughout our society. With Giane, I learned to look at Nature, have respect for it and learn to follow its example, which is fundamental for the future of humanity.
