Alex BABAYAN

I am a State-certified architect, holding dual degrees from ENSAP Lille (École Nationale Supérieure d’Architecture et de Paysage) and IAE Lille (Institute of Business Administration). My academic background combines architectural expertise with solid business and strategic skills, allowing me to approach projects with a comprehensive and multidisciplinary perspective. Throughout my professional career, I have worked in several architecture firms, contributing to diverse projects ranging from urban rehabilitation to sustainable construction. These experiences have given me a deep understanding of the building sector's challenges—technical, environmental, and economic. Today, I am co-developing Miscanterra, an innovative project focused on bio-based construction materials made from miscanthus, a fast-growing perennial plant with exceptional ecological properties. At Miscanterra, we aim to reduce the environmental impact of the building industry by offering high-performance, low-carbon insulation blocks that are both sustainable and scalable. My role within the project draws on both my architectural and business skills: I work on product development, market positioning, and partnerships with key players in the construction and innovation sectors. VivaTech is a unique opportunity to present Miscanterra to a wider audience, connect with potential collaborators, and accelerate the ecological transition of our built environment.
