A More Mindful Feed

We’re halfway through 2025—and fully focused on turning vision into action. In this update, we’re sharing what came out of our recent Board Retreat, Forum mid-year Summit, and growing tech partnerships—all building toward the launch of our industry-wide toolkit at Greenbuild. Plus: new member benefits, team updates, and a reminder to take a breath (we are!). Dive in and stay connected to the momentum we’re building—together.

From digital breakthroughs to in-person meetups, Q1 has been full of forward motion for mindful MATERIALS. The Common Materials Framework (CMF) is now available on even more platforms, our 2025 Forum strategy is in full swing, and we’re hiring a COO/ED to help lead the charge. We’re also popping up in cities across the country, co-hosting a major summit on material health, welcoming new Board members, and offering fresh ways for you (or your org) to engage—through sponsorship, membership, or just showing up and sharing the love.

We’re ending the year on an “unprecedented” note. We launched our 2024 Building Materials Industry Report and celebrated our 10th anniversary with our nearest and dearest at Greenbuild. We held our second annual Forum Summit, bringing together leaders from across the building materials industry to tackle big challenges and create actionable solutions — setting the stage for a more connected, regenerative future for the building materials market. And finally, the mM team is taking a little hiatus over the holidays ensuring our lights burn bright, not out in 2025.

Better insight into our work c/o the new website, what the Forums are up to in Year Two, the Denver Pop-Up has been RESCHEDULED, the Collaboration Hub is buzzing, and how we really are all in this together when it comes to facilitating change in the materials industry.
