Why should the WildLabs community be interested?
Because the amount of money donated to nature conservation is a drop on a glowing plate. Seriously more money can only come from where seriously more money is, the world of finance. There are some tough nuts to crack before that is going to work. Some of those have to do with quantification of biodiversity and the impact of activities on nature and biodiversity. If there are people in the world that could crack those nuts in a meaningful, conscientious and scientific way, then some of them are here at WildLabs. Where else would they be?
The CFA incubator focuses on "focuses on idea-stage and early-stage initiatives led by entrepreneurs or organizations committed to advancing their solutions through time, effort, and early investment."
They are looking for new ideas.
from any sector, public, private or civil society
Proposed projects do not have to be profit-generating but they must clearly show "a credible pathway to long-term financial sustainability or conservation impact"
