In this episode of NatureBacked, we sit down with Jessica Burley from Planet A Ventures, a European VC fund with €160 million in dedicated capital, pursuing a science-first approach to impact investing.
Planet A is rewriting the playbook by giving its in-house science team veto power on investment decisions, ensuring every portfolio company addresses the world's critical planetary boundaries—not just carbon.
Join us as we explore:
-
The rigorous lifecycle assessments that separate true impact from greenwashing.
-
Why cost parity is the key to mass adoption of green tech.
-
The unique challenges and massive potential of investing in hardware startups.
Tune in to discover how Planet A is proving that commercial success and environmental regeneration can - and must - go hand in hand.
