Switzerland: Elevating nature-positive start-ups
A new partnership with accelerator Innovate 4 Nature links Givaudan employees as mentors to start-ups bringing exciting nature-positive solutions
Aligned with our mission to enable inclusive and sustainable prosperity, we have partnered with accelerator Innovate 4 Nature (I4N). We provide financial resources and a link to Givaudan employees who volunteer to mentor and share their expertise with nature-positive start-ups in areas like procurement, marketing, and sustainability reporting.
I4N's purpose is to accelerate nature-positive solutions in collaboration with strategic partners to transition toward a regenerative economy. I4N has so far vetted more than 400 global solutions and for promising ones, they offer a financial endowment. They also provide human capital building via mentoring, education & training; networking opportunities, and partnership connections. The four solution focus areas are: 1. Sustainable management of ecosystems, 2. Productive and regenerative agriculture, 3. Circular nature-positive solutions, and 4. Nature as infrastructure and planet compatible cities.
