?? ??Now live: The Nature Tech Biodiversity Sector Map! We’re harnessing the energy of #NatureTechWeek to unveil our inaugural nature tech sector map for biodiversity, developed with Conservation International. This visual guide maps 600+ organizations driving biodiversity innovation worldwide, bringing greater clarity, collaboration & impact to the sector. Download the sector map here >>> https://lnkd.in/eRicadxh What we found: ?? Tech gaps:? 200+ orgs focus on monitoring, but data integration & interpretation lag - limiting real-world impact. ????? Despite impressive advancements in technologies like eDNA, bioacoustics, and remote sensing, practitioners face barriers to harnessing them fully, such as data interpretation, cost and implementation ?? Biodiversity records are unevenly distributed across species (taxonomic bias) and locations (geographic bias), creating blind spots in conservation decision-making ?? Target-setting challenges:? A lack of standardized guidance and diverse stakeholder needs make it harder for organizations to translate biodiversity data into actionable insights for different groups. ?? Democratization more a promise than reality? AI, camera traps & citizen science remain costly & complex. How do we bridge these gaps? Let’s discuss! #BiodiversityTech #NatureData #ConservationInnovation cc Gilad Goren Zoey Werbin Amalia Helen Paula Palermo Teal Brown Zimring Ali Swanson Erika Korosi Sophia Fillion Chad Gallinat Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation Trond Larsen Kavya Pradhan Stephanie Wear

Help us find solutions that measure the biodiversity impact of forestry! ?? A global leader in the forest, paper ??? & packaging industry is seeking innovative ways to measure the impact of retention harvesting on biodiversity and carbon emissions - and we need your expertise! Traditional clearcut harvesting maximizes short-term profitability but can lead to biodiversity loss. Retention forestry, a method practiced in the Nordics and the U.S., leaves select broad-leaved trees within conifer plantations, creating habitats for biodiversity to thrive. ?? Do you have a solution that can help? ?? Complete this form or tag relevant contacts! - >>> https://lnkd.in/ei4hxcqU ??We’re excited to be partnering with IMPACT LABS.earth on this project, who will be bringing their expertise in nature-based solutions and impact measurement. This is a chance to shape the future of nature-positive forestry and contribute to the growing market for biodiversity credits. #NatureTech #Biodiversity #Forestry #Sustainability #NaturePositive #ImpactLabs

While some governments backslide on climate commitments, businesses face a new financial reality: nature loss is a material risk. From supply chain disruptions to shifting regulations and evolving consumer expectations, the business case for protecting nature is clear. ?? Enter nature tech. Companies are leveraging innovative solutions to measure, mitigate, and monetize nature-positive strategies. But a key challenge remains: how do we scale these solutions fast enough? We recently teamed up with Emily Birch, founder of WildSight to explore the business case for the nature-positive transition ?? We’re excited to be continuing these important conversations with many of you in a few days at #NatureTechWeek! #NatureTech #NaturePositive #SustainableFinance #ClimateAction #ImpactInvesting
