London-based NatureTech startup Verna has developed a software platform that helps businesses and public bodies plan, implement, and monitor long-term nature recovery projects.
London-based NatureTech startup Verna has raised $4m in a funding round co-led by NAP and Übermorgen. The round also drew participation from Vanneck, Love Ventures, Concrete Ventures, and Climate VC.
The company provides software designed to help businesses and public bodies move beyond biodiversity reporting and deliver measurable nature recovery programmes over decades. Verna will allocate the fresh capital towards product development, including the deployment of artificial intelligence tools to optimise restoration plans and verify progress.
The startup has experienced rapid growth since launch, surpassing $1m in annual recurring revenue within its first year. Its platform currently supports more than 3,000 users across 100 organisations managing nature recovery initiatives.
From the founder
"As threats to the natural world become more urgent, any organisation dependent on land – whether directly or through their supply chain – has a business resilience need to invest in nature recovery."
