  BREWSTER, MA ­ The Cape Cod Museum of Natural 
History in Brewster is proud to present a new 
Summer Series called Lunch & Learn. Our first 
program is Nature’s Innovations & Biomimicry with 
Peter Lawrence, President and Co-founder of 
Biomimicry New England   Monday, June 26, 2017 at 
11:30am.  For information on other Lunch & Learn 
programs and Series Tickets go to www.ccmnh.org

Biomimicry is about learning from nature. More 
specifically, it is the conscious emulation of 
natural forms, process and systems to solve 
problems. This is not new, the indigenous people 
of the world have survived by learning from 
nature for thousands of years, but recently we 
have forgotten this opportunity. Nature has been 
solving problems for 3.8 billion years and there 
is much to be learned. Peter will discuss nature 
as a source of sustainable innovation and the new discipline of Biomimicry.

Biomimicry New England is a nonprofit 
organization dedicated to establishing nature and 
natural systems as an important resource for 
education and innovation in New England. 
Previously, from 1985 to 2014 Peter was Chairman 
& Founder of the Corporate Design Foundation 
whose mission was to improve the quality of life 
and the effectiveness of organizations through 
design. Prior to that he was Director of the 
Design Management Institute in Boston. He has 
taught design at business schools including: 
Babson, London Business School, Boston University 
School of Management and UT Austin’s School of 
Business. He received a degree in Economics from 
Lafayette College and a degree in Architecture 
from Rhode Island School of Design
