Work with us
We help regenerative-curious organisations to imagine and design futures, by tuning in to nature’s intelligence. We do lots of things; here are some:
Your chance to think like fungi: join us in a Decomposition Day, or a session to decompose the infrastructures of your imagination.
We help you to shape regenerative futures by taking strategic foresight through to regenerative design practice - starting with what needs to rot first.
Book Sporesight Founder Jess Jorgensen for a keynote talk at your event or organisation.
Follow our world mushroom tour: a 5+ year research exploration that underpins all of our work. Plus, case studies and live colabs as they sporulate.
Who is this for?
For imagination…
Sporesight is for anyone curious about regenerative futures. Whether you want to imagine, speculate, design or build innovation, brands or systems which are regenerative, we hope to inspire fresh, fun(gi) thinking.

Consultancies in sustainability, foresight, innovation. Innovation teams helping clients transform. Foresight folk inspired by fresh thinking.
OUR FRAMEWORK
Rot + Regeneration
In nature, nothing regenerates without first breaking down. The same is true for strategies, systems, and the assumptions holding them in place. Our work follows Sporesight’s Rot + Regeneration framework, where a decomposition strategy is the precursor for regenerative growth.
