How can technical advancements, combined with venture capital, help address the drivers of biodiversity loss? This is the aim of Superorganism, the first VC fund dedicated to biodiversity. We sat down with managing partner Tom Quigley, who started his career in conservation. Tom shares why nature tech could help bring funding at the scale and speed we need for the biodiversity crisis, and the specific focus areas of Superorganism.
