BioInspired! So What? Now What!

Taryn Mead, founder of Symbios and previously with Biomimicry 3.8, has been awarded the position of Marie Curie Research Fellow at the School of Business, University of Exeter.  According to Taryn:

The Fellowship is through an EU consortium in partnership with the Academy of Business in Society researching Sustainability-Driven Innovation.  It was a posted position that my supervisor, Sally Jeanrenaud, put together. As part of a research consortium, we will be meeting in several European and South African cities in the next three years to share our research and resources.  I'll be researching the application of Biomimicry for Business Management Innovation.  I'm only just starting this week, so I'm obviously still defining my research but it will be a continuation of the work that I've been doing for the last years in biomimicry, but with an analytical view of the effectiveness of the discipline.  I'll end with a PhD after my three year contract.
