What if we stopped funding projects and started financing whole economic ecosystems and what would it take to build one from the ground up?
Individual regenerative farms, isolated carbon projects, and standalone biodiversity programmes cannot transform a landscape that is structurally organised for extraction. This panel offers a fundamentally different proposition: invest not in projects, but in the constellation of enterprises, institutions, and community systems that together constitute a landscape's economic ecosystem.
Here, we converge on a single question: what does it take to finance the regeneration of a whole landscape? Drawing directly from the living experiments, it examines the practical architecture of landscape-scale transformation and the discipline of sequencing capital across regenerative pathways: philanthropic capital reshapes risk, catalytic capital bridges the gap between proof and scale, and commercial capital sustains what has been demonstrated.
