Arboretum

Facilitating recovery of forests in cooperation with enterprises through teambuilding.

Pitch

Our technology allows to grow tree seedlings that are have a 97% survival rate during plantation (compared to 60% of regular) and the tree lifespan is increased up to 3 times compared to regular trees. We took this technology and created “Forest as a Service” for green thinking companies that want to make a positive impact in their ecosystem. We design for companies forests from over 5000 different plant species and provide them with tree seedlings, which in turn are planted by company employees in form of team building exercises. We take care of all the legal documents, provide land for plantation, conduct company trainings. Companies in turn get a unique team building experience that impacts positively the ecosystem and in a span of 5-7 years transforms into a place for spending leisure time for company events and for its employees and their families. Project supports the idea of high scalability through franchising and other revenue models. Accomplishes 13 out of 17 SDGs by UN.
