Our guest this week was Kat Bruce, founder of Nature Metrics and scientist turned entrepreneur who is passionate about the interface between science, business, and policy — the intersection of these sectors is something we’re incredibly excited about. Kat’s company is bringing to market novel molecular tools for biodiversity assessment to accelerate evidence based decision making, improve environmental management, increasing the speed of monitoring efforts and reduce costs.

The ability to accurately measure nature lies at the heart of our mission to reach a state of efficient coexistence between humanity and nature. This foundation of trusted data is the key to setting a global baseline and the scientifically-backed targets we all seek.
