Nature Invest – Financing Biodiversity and Nature-Based Solutions at Scale
Co-Founded by Romain Pison
Innovating how capital flows into biodiversity protection and nature-based infrastructure worldwide.
What is Nature Invest?
Nature Invest is a specialized advisory and project structuring firm focused on unlocking investment for biodiversity and nature-based solutions (NbS). Co-founded by Romain Pison, the company operates at the intersection of conservation finance, climate adaptation, and sustainable development.
Nature Invest helps governments, investors, and development partners integrate natural capital into infrastructure planning, project finance, and ESG strategies—ensuring nature becomes a central asset class in the transition to a resilient, low-carbon economy.
Who is Nature Invest For?
Nature Invest serves institutions and actors aiming to embed biodiversity and natural systems into their economic and investment frameworks:
Governments and multilateral institutions
integrating NbS into climate plans, urban development, and national infrastructure
Impact investors and climate funds
seeking bankable nature-based portfolios with measurable co-benefits.
Conservation NGOs and ecosystem service providers
scaling project financing beyond donor models.
Engineering & consulting firms
embedding NbS into resilient infrastructure and ESG frameworks.
What Problem Does Nature Invest Solve?
Investing in nature remains fragmented, underfunded, and misaligned with traditional finance mechanisms. Stakeholders face:
“We work at the frontier—turning ecosystem services into investable outcomes.”
- Lack of scalable, investable NbS project pipelines
- Misalignment between conservation priorities and economic incentives
- Difficulty quantifying and valuing nature’s contribution to resilience and carbon
- Limited expertise on blending public and private finance for nature
Nature Invest bridges these gaps by providing:
- Pre-feasibility and structuring of bankable NbS projects
- Biodiversity valuation, ecosystem service modeling, and impact tracking
- Strategic advisory on integrating nature into ESG and climate finance policies
- Access to green and blended finance instruments at national and international levels
Why Was Nature Invest Created?
Romain Pison co-founded Nature Invest to address a persistent blind spot in climate finance:
“Carbon is measurable, but nature is invaluable. Our mission is to build financial models that protect biodiversity as a cornerstone of resilient societies.”
With years of experience advising on sustainable infrastructure and ESG, Romain saw that nature could no longer be an afterthought—it had to be integrated into how we build, invest, and grow.
