in nature.
The First Thirty
We back early-stage entrepreneurs leveraging technology to enhance human and planetary health.
Our mission: Regenerate 30 million hectares of soil to improve human health.
The first thirty cm of soil is the world’s most precious and undervalued asset. It powers carbon capture, stores water to combat scarcity, drives biodiversity, and delivers the nutrients essential for human health and food security.
At the heart of nature lies soil—the foundation of human health, planetary resilience, and sustainable economic growth
Soil is a rich, complex ecosystem that provides the life systems we need to survive: clean air, water and food.
Theory of Change
The Challenge: We consume resources as if we have two Earths, prioritising quantity over quality and eroding human and planetary health.
Our Approach: Leverage technological advancements—like Tech Bio and AI—to simplify complex systems, eliminate the need for commodification, and accelerate the economic shift toward regenerative solutions.
The Impact: Healthier ecosystems and human well-being, laying the foundation for a thriving planet and economy.
