Host ⁠Matthew Jackson with guests: Thomas Kveiborg, Oliver Hansen & Nikolaj Callisen Friis

LIVE from Copenhagen in association with BLOXHUB and the AEC Hackathon.

Bio-based materials are moving from niche innovation to mainstream application. Timber, hemp, straw, mycelium and waste-derived products are no longer experimental concepts — they are being deployed in housing, commercial and public buildings at scale. The question is no longer if they work, but how we implement them effectively, affordably and safely.

• Proven applications in housing and urban development.
• Standardisation, industrialisation and digital workflows that enable cost control and scalability.
• Collaboration models between public and private actors that accelerate adoption.
• Regulatory and insurance barriers — and what needs to change to unlock broader deployment.
• Ensuring durability, safety and long-term performance without compromising sustainability.
• Beyond material substitution, this discussion considers how bio-based construction can contribute to healthier buildings, local supply chains and more resilient communities.

The aim is practical clarity: how do we move from pilot projects to market-wide transformation — delivering buildings that are not only green in principle, but impactful in measurable outcomes?
