SQIM is founded on the belief that innovative natural materials, grown by means of microbial fermentation, hold the promise for the creation of a near future where human activities and the rhythms of the larger ecosystem are not in conflict with each other. Accordingly, SQIM co-designs with nature to develop cutting edge technologies and deliver naturally grown products with superior properties, employing fungal mycelium as its engineering and manufacturing platform. Combining the potential of mycelium-based biofabrication with a deep understanding of the biology behind it, and thanks to an industrial approach inspired by vertical farming, today SQIM is capable of serving its own verticals with advanced technologies, addressing different markets and applications.
