🥝DRIVEN x Reflow

What is it about and why is it relevant ?

DRIVEN is an online distributed incubation program aiming to embed advanced computational design strategies in early stage entrepreneurship for a circular economy. Computational design can play a crucial role in terms of material use awareness: it can optimize the flow of material and its economy, organize its storage, transportation, and reassembly. These elements are usually not incorporated in the design phase but they have social implications and economic properties that could enrich a design’s value, scalability, impact, and agency. The goal of DRIVEN is to trigger an awareness of how computational design can be used to consider and put to action all the principles of a circular economy and to showcase built projects embedding such qualities realized as proof of concepts. DRIVEN incubated projects will act as precedents to help all start-up projects that follow in the pipeline. The program was firstly developed by Volumes in the context of the Reflow EU funded project.
