Bridging Capital and Conservation Across East Africa
I identify and de-risk high-impact agroforestry, regenerative farming, and apiculture projects in East Africa through rigorous on-the-ground due diligence and investor packaging.
A trusted curator of conservation and biodiversity-led intelligence, providing vetted access and on-ground expertise to those shaping Africa's resilient future.
