René Lux

René Lux is CEO of MyPilz, and host of the Viennese mycology biennial Pilzfestspiele.

In his work, he positions fungi as key agents in the transition toward a regenerative, bio-based circular economy. Rather than mere resources, fungi serve as models for symbiotic and resilient systems of production and exchange.

In his talk, “Fungi Economics", René explores how fungi can help us overcome the destructive impacts of today’s economy and inspire regenerative, life-centered systems.
