In this third episode of Forest Builders, we are listening to Matt Leggett, the founder of Terratai - a venture builder for nature If your Linkedin feed looks like mine, everyone is an impact investor these days…But you will see that Matt’s story is quite different! In this episode, Matt tells us how he became an impact investor after years working in conservation NGOs such as WWF and Wildlife Conservation Society, and how this bridge from the NGO sector to the private sector gives him the fresh outlook that’s needed to support the growth of Nature Based Solutions in South East Asia. How should one translate the rules of operating a VC when looking at Nature Based Business? Is it realistic to expect a Nature Based Solution to grow at the same speed as another AI startup? Will there be a Nature-Based Unicorn? If recently you have been wondering how can we connect all this green money that we keep hearing about in press releases to green projects, this episode is for you.
