Shaun Seaman on Mushroom Material, the Next Fest 2025 pitch winner

Shaun Seaman from Mushroom Material recently won the Next Fest 2025 pitch competition run by the Sustainable Business Network and this is his pitch. I attended the event and enjoyed the discussions there. Thanks to SBN for the chance to share this with others as it is a good example of innovative and new ways of doing business and thinking! Website: His bio: Shaun is Founder & CEO at Mushroom Material. Mushroom Material is replacing expanded polystyrene (Styrofoam) with a high-performance, home-compostable alternative made from mycelium (mushrooms). The material matches expanded polystyrene in impact resistance, thermal protection, and acoustic insulation. The end product is fully circular, microplastic-free, and safe for home composting.
