Ginger Dosier
BioTech Founder in Residence
An architect, strategist and visionary with a focus on materials for the built environment and a passion for implementing biological blueprints to manufacture materials more compatible with our planet. We can learn and advance through partnering with he trove of biological blueprints to solve our current climate crisis and to build an advanced future with valorized diversity.
Starting In 2005 with a question: “What if you could grow cement?” In 2012, Ginger co-founded Biomason to rapidly accelerate biological cement for the built environment, where she served 11 years as the founding CEO, and on the Board of Directors. She grew the company and biocement technology from her second bedroom lab, to international commercialization starting with an order for pavers manufactured and delivered in 2015.
She assembled an exceptional team of over 50+ disciplines, multiple international patents granted, raised capital and received multiple grants through Series C. Grants included significant US Government Department of Defense R&D demonstration contracts for extending biocement based applications beyond precast concrete.
Ginger enjoys and is especially skilled at forging strategic expertise in building and connecting diverse teams of scientists, engineers, architects, builders, funding partners, granting agencies, supply stakeholders, government and strategic partners- shaping the larger strategic vision for global scale application and adoption.
Prior to Biomason, she served as a professor of architecture at the American University of Sharjah in the United Arab Emirates and North Carolina State University. While at Cranbrook Academy of Art, Ginger earned her Masters of Architecture with a thesis on Material Performance and Behavior as a combination of architecture and material science.
