About the Host: Jago Jan Veith
Ex passionate, Social-Entrepreneur, Digital Nomad, Photographer, Digital Marketing, Social Media, Web Project Manager currently based in Switzerland, Europe. He has lived and worked in Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador, Spain, Switzerland, Paraguay and Panama, and needless to say, he is passionate about sharing his extensive knowledge of bamboo to the world.
Luke’s interest in bamboo began during his studies at Southern Illinois University Carbondale when he was introduced to the work of Buckminster Fuller, known for his dome structures. Luke made prototypes of engineered bamboo structures right after graduation and has been working on perfecting the process ever since. Bamboo is an excellent building material due to its quick growth, strength, lightweight nature, and flexibility, making it ideal for earthquake-resistant structures. It’s also sustainable because it’s a renewable resource that doesn’t require replanting after harvesting.
