STEVE SCHAPPERT,
Founding Member and CEO, The BIOS Organization LLC.
Steve
Schappert created The BIOS Philosophy in 2004, and founded The
BIOS Center in 2008.
The
"BIOS" concept in its most basic form is simply, "do well by
doing good", a simple philosophy that could save the environment and
boost the economy. Schappert
says, "There are no delusions, it is a lifetime of work for many people. A
lifetime dedicated to leaving the world a better place for the next seven
generations. It's about people caring enough to get involved, roll up
their sleeves and taking ownership in a cause that is more than just
building and selling homes. It's our present, our future and the
dreams of many.
Today
Steve is focusing all his efforts on building the BIOS brand
and helping others promote the green side of their business.
Steve is searching for others to partner with to make the
world a little greener and affordable, because he knows full
well the combination is required for the world to see real
sustainable change.

SCOTT NORTHCOTT,
– Principal Licensee Northcott Properties
QUEENSLAND, AUSTRALIA
Scott
lives and breathes property.
From the
ground up, Scott is involved in all aspects of the
purchase and construction of properties for his clients.
With a background in business management and human
resources, Scott is able to think very differently from
others in the Australian real estate industry. This has
seen Scott lead the way, internationally sourcing property
for Australian investors and setting up Global Property
Club for international investors to purchase properties
all around the world. In Australia, Scott runs, Buyers
Only, a buyers agency service, helping buyers find the
best properties at the best price.
During his
international travels Scott became aware of the need to
begin to change the way construction is performed,
especially in his home country. “I have seen many
properties from many different places, all around the
world, and what I see is waste and poor use of energy and
resources. This upsets me as I know there is a better
way. I now have the goal to make Zero carbon footprint
housing available to Australians and not just the ones
with lots of money. For sustainable living to have the
most impact on our environment, it needs to be available
to anyone who chooses and should not be restricted by high
cost or complexity of build process. I value our
relationship with Bios homes, as it will help me achieve
this goal and bring affordability and simplicity to
Australians and the new era of Zero Living.”
