just read about this startup called Kubik in Ethiopia that’s turning plastic waste into actual building materials. they collect hard-to-recycle plastic, melt it down, and use it to make bricks and beams for houses. it’s cheaper, faster to build with, and apparently even stronger than regular materials. they’re processing like 48,000 kilos of plastic a day and cutting a huge amount of carbon emissions. feels like one of those simple but genius ideas that could really scale in places that need affordable housing. will drop more details in the comments if anyone’s curious. submitted by /u/PsychologicalFarm703 [link] [comments]

These aren’t “influencers” or traditional survey participants — they’re behaviorally-identified individuals who: Consistently discover new products early Offer feedback unprompted Often shape what gets traction, without even trying The idea is to treat these people less like a data point and more like creative collaborators in the innovation cycle. So far they’ve been able to, Pressure-test positioning, language, packaging Surface emotional drivers and perception risks Identify blind spots or better directions before launch We’re currently running this with about 100 members across food, wellness, home, and CPG — and we’re slowly expanding.
