Important results from the project
The prototype Beyond Wood began with a future scenario where ecosystems guide decision-making. In June, we launched a fictional 2050 annual report during a webinar with panelists from the forest value chain. They discussed the ecological, social, and economic benefits of regenerative forestry. Beyond Wood aims to inspire a new forest logic—valuing forests not just for what can be harvested, but for all the vital services it provides.
Expected long term effects
We created the fictional company Beyond Wood with the belief that forests are living ecosystems, not just resources. With a positive vision rooted in science and business, we aim to inspire a more biointelligent, sustainable, circular, social, and gender-equal forestry in Sweden. Beyond Wood is only the beginning—we hope to grow our ideas with partners who want to lead the way in sustainable forestry.
