The Nature Challenge is an international initiative of the Nature Challenge Foundation and WWF and partners. It is there to stimulate market based solutions to nature conservation and improvement of biodiversity and livelihoods. Through a focused business plan competition format, this ?business driven conservation? incubator aims to either reduce the negative environmental impacts or increase the positive impact through business models; maximizing the environmental returns per euro/dollar invested. The Nature Challenge Initiative aims to offer access to a mix of (inter-) national seed capital, working capital and/or equity as well as linkages to buyers and technical support for viable business models ? from an SME or producer organization - that have a positive environmental impact. Marcel Spaas is co-ordinating the implementation of the Nature Challenge.
