Top Priorities:

• Ecosystem services optimization tools, aimed at improving the performance and resilience of natural systems.

• Biodiversity tracking technologies for nature-based and agricultural projects — ideally using multiple methods (e.g., eDNA, acoustic sensing) and targeting a range of biodiversity types

Other Areas of Interest:

• Alternative solution for soy lecithin with low CO2 and land use.
• Investigate substitutes for soy protein with lower impact on deforestation and carbon emissions.
• Investigate substitutes for palm-derived MCTs/Innovate processing technologies to convert co-products into MCTs.
• Technologies to measure and track biodiversity in the implementation of nature-based solutions and agriculture projects.
• Develop methods and processes to enhance traceability in complex supply chain like soy or palm derivatives
