Our Purpose
We believe we can mitigate climate change by having a long-term vision as well as a thorough and resilient business model while being aware of our own footprint. Our particular focus is on the following priorities:
Channelling carbon finance and innovation
We channel carbon finance to where it is most needed, ensuring that our investments have a significant positive impact on biodiversity, local communities and livelihoods, while reducing greenhouse gas emissions. We are innovative in piloting inspiring solutions that help combat climate change. Through a very extensive due diligence process, we ensure that investments are made in the highest quality projects.
Expertise and passion of our team
We harness the expertise and passion of our diverse team to drive innovation and ensure that our work has a positive impact and creates meaningful change. Individual growth, expertise, cross-cultural collaboration and a spirit of togetherness, fun and fulfilment are core values that fuel our collective efforts.
Collaboration and fairness
We seek to foster reliable and trustworthy relationships with our project partners and with other market players, working together to maximise our collective efforts. Our focus is always on promoting fairness and equity in all our initiatives, ensuring that the benefits of our projects are widely shared. We work closely with our clients and shareholders to provide expertise and drive change in the global green transformation.
Sustainable living conditions and contributions to the SDGs
We finance and develop projects that aim to create sustainable living conditions for communities and contribute to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). We actively seek to support communities in our project areas and work to improve their well-being.
Biodiversity conservation and regeneration
We are committed to preserving biodiversity and recognising its crucial role in maintaining a healthy planet. Our projects incorporate the latest standards and technologies to ensure the conservation and regeneration of biodiversity and to promote ecological balance.
By adhering to these principles, we strive to develop high-quality climate projects that make a tangible difference in the fight against climate change. Together, we are committed to creating a sustainable future for generations to come.
Our company has been founded on the premise of creating a sustainable future, and we are committed to walking this path with expertise, passion, and integrity.
