❓ What's got VCs buzzing about #NatureTech? These are the insights I shared with Ollie Potter in The NatureTech Memos: What Nature-Tech-focused challenge areas are you most excited about and why? I am looking out for companies going beyond tackling reporting requirements, leading to nature-positive gains, and channeling capital into preserving and restoring natural ecosystems. What Nature-Tech start-ups are you most excited about and why? 🌿 I am excited about The Landbanking Group, founded by Sonja and Martin Stuchtey, who previously founded Systemiq, to make ecosystem services investible and bring nature onto the balance sheets.  🌿 goodcarbon is pioneering a platform for Nature-based Solutions, connecting projects, investors, and companies. They offer high-quality carbon credits with wide-ranging biodiversity and community benefits, mainly in the Blue Economy. 🌿 Mozaic Earth is ground-truthing nature data at scale, bringing local communities into the equation. The team recently won first prize at the Nature Tech Challenge at HackSummit. 👇 Read more on other investors` thoughts and exciting innovations in nature tech: Link in the comments
