Celebrating #WorldEnvironmentDay's theme of ‘land restoration, desertification & drought resilience,’ we’re proud to feature Project Sapling, a pilot project supported by our Frontier Tech Hub, as it takes a significant step towards environmental rehabilitation in #SierraLeone.🌱 In collaboration with UAVaid, Crown Agents, and Tacugama this project harnesses drone technology for precise monitoring of reforestation efforts, aiming to inspire confidence among investors and encourage funding in vital reforestation activities.🌳🌳🌳 Emphasizing the crucial role of technology in environmental conservation, Project Sapling innovatively employs a combination of ground truthing—attaching and registering a geotag to each individual sapling via a mobile app—and advanced remote sensing. Through this geo-tagging and integrating drone imagery with GIS mapping, we're providing a transparent and accessible platform for investors. 💰🌿 Watch their video to learn about their findings: https://lnkd.in/ehTDFMrF #GenerationRestoration #WeAreDTGlobal Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office - Research, Science and Innovation

Two pre-seed companies expanding into new frontiers in climatetech and hospitality: 1. Restoring marine ecosystems, one seagrass meadow at a time. Ulysses Ecosystem Engineering Inc. – What did the seagrass say to the investor? Nothing, he just waved. Ulysses raised $2M led by Lowercarbon Capital to develop underwater drones that restore ocean habitats, focusing on seagrass meadows. With partnerships from The Nature Conservancy to government agencies in the U.S. and Australia, they’re scaling restoration efforts faster than ever. 2. Hotel bookings for companies, stress-free. Workgrounds – Making group bookings for corporations stress-free … or at least less stressful. Workgrounds raised $2.6M from deftly.vc, Hannah Grey VC, and more to build an AI tool that simplifies group hotel bookings for companies. Founders Nikhil Sethi and Garrett Ullom are set to solve a persistent challenge for business travel. What aspect of these companies caught your eye?

Amidst the challenges of global warming and the consequent increased risks of land movement, the need to monitor and mitigate environmental hazards has never been greater.

This is cost of we are paying for irresponsible approach that was undertaken globally to achieve industrial and economic growth.

The enormity of these events can be put into numbers but their impact cannot be put into words. As business leaders and organizations that drive supply chains of countries and regions, the onus lies in better understanding of the grave outcomes of such events. Are you willing to take one step further and own the change we all advocate?

I am please to accept a founding role on the Saltmarsh Breakthrough Advisory Group, with a wonderful group of colleagues. How we think about the #saltmarsh breakthrough will be different to mangroves given their geographic and historic context. I look forward to digging in.

🌍 Why the Eden to Addo Corridor Matters 🌍 The Eden to Addo Corridor spans over 400 kilometers—an ecological lifeline connecting multiple ecosystems across South Africa. Projects like this are essential to preserving biodiversity, protecting habitats, and ensuring species survival. But without public awareness and sustainable funding, even the most ambitious conservation efforts struggle to make a lasting impact. That’s where Keystones Expedition comes in. Our mission is to bridge the gap between financial support and high-impact environmental projects through powerful storytelling. By capturing and sharing the urgent stories of projects like Eden to Addo, we create awareness that drives funding and action—helping ensure these ecosystems thrive for generations. We’ve bootstrapped this journey to show what’s possible when passion meets purpose. As we head back to Eden to Addo, we’re seeking support to continue sharing these stories. If you believe in protecting biodiversity and want to help drive real change, please consider supporting our crowdfunding campaign (link in comments). Together, we can turn awareness into action ReWild Africa Rhian Berning Jade Alice Chevallier Tom Bonin
