Why take action now?

As global markets price in the materiality of the living world, there has never been a bigger disruptive opportunity for business reinvention. The massive risk only sits on the balance sheets and P&Ls of 20th century business models. The quicker you decide to take action, the further ahead you’ll get.

  • The ‘natural capital’ bubble is 3x larger than the CO2 bubble (Stuchtey et al 2016) and half of global business GDP, US$44 trillion, relies on Nature (World Economic Forum 2020).

    190 countries have signed the global biodiversity framework, committing governments, large companies and financial institutions to Nature-risk disclosures and action plans (COP15 2022).

    Global markets are now rapidly pricing in Nature's material costs.

    the DISRUPTIVE IMPACT on balance sheets and P&Ls is now onstream.

    If we have a 20th century business model or mindset, this will negatively effect our i. growth potential, ii. access to markets, iii. access to capital, iv. regulatory compliance, v. supply costs, and vi. brand health.

    But if we transform to Nature-positive business models, there is MASSIVE OPPORTUNITY. It could create US$10 trillion in GDP growth and 395 million new jobs by 2030 (WEF).

    Many businesses right now aren't waiting for science based target frameworks to take action. They're already on the transformational pathway. They're not just winning, they're overturning the shape of global markets, and disrupting the rules of the global economy .

    If we rapidly connect our strategy, innovation and tech to the science of life, we can disrupt and win.

    Or as Simon Sinek said in the Infinite Game “There's no such thing as winning or losing; only ahead and behind” .

  • Nature-positive sits alongside Climate. You don't just consider carbon emissions, but actively protect biodiversity, soil, water, land use, nutrient flows etc. as well.

    But this is MORE than reducing your footprint. This is MORE than compliance reporting. And this is more than biodiversity credits.

    You aim to create a positive, regenerative effect on the living systems your business operates within, and depends upon. You aim to create conditions for life to flourish.

    This means your strategy, innovations and business model have to connect with the science of living systems.

    Our research shows there are not one but FOUR design axes of value you need to consider when re/designing your strategy, innovation and business model.

    Each one helps you see, unlock and leverage the deep patterns of how Nature works:

    1. Transforming to cleaner, more renewable, non-toxic solutions (ECOLOGY)

    2. Shifting to more ethical, equitable, dignified and autonomous solutions for people, communities, and other species (ETHICS)

    3. Shifting to more circular systems that keep materials, energy and information in flow (SYSTEMS)

    4. Transforming to unlock our full bio-potential, tapping into the genius of Nature’s R&D biotech toolkit (BIOMIMCRY)

    (We think this last one is really cool.)

  • We can go ONE STEP FURTHER. Not just protect Nature. But emulate Nature.

    There is a 88%+ INNOVATION GAP between how biology designs and how humans design (Vincent and Mann 2011).

    Nature’s playbook is high value, high performance, high growth. Tried, tested and proven for the last 3.8 billion years. And it's open source R&D biotech genius, we can plug and play.

    When we discard the old business human-centered design playbook (that enforces low value, high risk leverage points), and use Nature's playbook instead, we open up massive innovation and market-disrupting potential. And we play at the highest order of sustainability.

    Right now bleeding edge businesses around the world are leveraging Nature’s genius. And reaping the rewards.

    1. Multi-revenue stream creating.

    2. Demand-led B2B and B2C growth.

    3. Scalable.

    4. De-risked.

    5. Lower costs

    6. More profitable.

    What we really really love is that in Nature's playbook, leverage is abundant. Not in some Pollyanna world view kind of way, but as a deep design principle. And it’s way more fun!

    Not just Nature-positive, but Nature-played.

    Welcome to the bright side.
