Wildchain

Wildchain is a mobile game that merges fun with real-world conservation efforts and climate action. Players act as a virtual conservationist, collecting and caring for digital representations of endangered animals. By playing mini-games and making in-game purchases, players contribute to real-world initiatives that protect these animals' habitats and support conservation efforts. Wildchain allows gamers to build their own wildlife sanctuary and learn about endangered species, all while contributing to preserving biodiversity and habitat restoration. Wildchain utilizes blockchain to create unique digital collectibles representing the adopted animals.

Ascend Batteries

Ascend Elements is company focused on large-scale EV battery recycling, providing solutions that help recover valuable materials from used batteries and e-waste, which are repurposed into new battery components through their proprietary Hydro-to-Cathode® technology. This closed-loop system results in up to 90% lower GHG emissions compared to than traditional methods, by reducing batteries going to the landfill, reducing reliance on virgin materials, enabling a cleaner manufacturing process, and lowering the environmental impact of battery production-- essential for driving the broader energy transition.

Loam

LoamBio is an agricultural tech company whose technology harnesses the power of microbes, specifically endophytic fungi, to create seed coatings which improve soil health and sequester carbon, which support greater crop yields, and potential income for farmers through carbon markets.. These coatings, applied during planting, boost the natural ability of plants to store carbon in the soil and promote their growth and resilience against environmental stressors like drought, disease, and high temperatures. Loam positions itself as a farmer-centric company offering programs like SecondCrop, which helps farmers earn additional income through carbon credits for the carbon sequestered in their soil, and CarbonBuilder, to enable farmers to integrate soil health analytics seamlessly with existing practices.

Earth Species Project

Earth Species Project is a non-profit research lab and impact organization focused on using artificial intelligence to advance our understanding of animal communication, and ultimately to decode non-human languages. The organization is founded on the belief that understanding non-human languages will transform how we perceive the world and our relationship with the rest of nature. Their work involves developing machine learning models to interpret animal sounds and movements. While "decoding" communications are a long-term objective, the ESP supports other organizations along the way by supplementing animal and ecological research; supporting existing conservation efforts; and contributing to the fields of ethology, bioacoustics, and machine learning by making their research public.

Kiiren

Kiiren is a no-code software-as-a-service (SaaS) application designed with regenerative intention to incorporate AI technology in right relationship with its human operators. The platform automatically tunes itself based on “knowledge bases” loaded into it, allowing non-technical people to adapt, curate, and collaborate around knowledge sets based on their unique operating context and place. Their primary focus is on enhancing community and organizational efficiency by providing seamless access to resources and information. Its mission is to adapt LLM generative AI technologies into globally accessible “augmented regenerative intelligence” (ARI) in a way that is humane and living systems first, ethical, safe, useful, and serves as an impact multiplier and coherence builder in the regenerative movement. Kiiren’s “knowledge ecosystem” is currently supporting leaders and community building across intersections of regenerative economics, finance, spirituality, indigenous wisdom, and social transformation.
