What is a Corporate Biodiversity Strategy?
A corporate biodiversity strategy is a plan that aims to help a company understand, manage and reduce its impact on nature while identifying opportunities to support nature restoration. This process involves assessing a company’s biodiversity risks and dependencies within its operations and throughout its entire supply chain.
It has been great working with Caitlin and the team. Always available for supporting our doubts and questions towards such an important topic. Clear deliverables and time plan always in place.
Who needs a Corporate Biodiversity Strategy?
Companies that rely on and/or impact nature would benefit from a biodiversity strategy or one of the components within it. For companies that are advanced in their sustainability journey, a full strategy makes sense, for others, they might select sub-components to help meet their nature goals.
Building Blocks of Biodiversity Strategy
Risk Assessment
Biodiversity risk is unique to every business, influenced by materials, policies, supply chains and adaptability. Understanding your business’s specific risks is crucial. Our risk assessment pinpoints the scale and urgency of biodiversity challenges, setting the stage for future advancements in your sustainability work.
Disclosure and Risk Assessment

Designed for simplicity and impact, they ensure transparent reporting regarding environmental impacts, embodying sustainability and a commitment to conservation. We can help your business to align with frameworks like SBTN, TNFD and CSRD.
Impact and Materiality Assessment
In the EU, mandatory impact and materiality assessments are more than regulatory checkboxes. We work closely with our clients, transforming these assessments into strategic assets for informed decision-making. Our approach ensures these insights are not only compliant but also integral to effective biodiversity management in a way that aligns with your broader business goals.
