Jamie Miller is a leader and award-winning specialist in Biomimicry and Regenerative Design, the first Director of Biomimicrat B+H and first Global Director of Regenerative Design for the SJ Group of Companies bringing together the skills and services of B+H and Atelier Ten to both Canadian and international services. His role represents a pioneering shift in our industry, one that works with nature, rather than against it.

Jamie is the President of the sustainability consultancy Biomimicry Frontiers and founder of Biomimicry Commons, an education and incubator space that Fast Company named a "World Changing Idea." He holds a PhD in engineering, specializing in urban resilience and systems-based biomimicry. Previously co-director of OCAD University's biomimicry program, his deep understanding of biomimicry was shaped by Indigenous Elders and Janine Benyus. Jamie advocates for nature-based solutions and collaboration to create cities that not only coexist with nature but actively contribute to its regeneration.
