Volans has won a major grant from the Tellus Mater Foundation to help fund our Pathways to Scale work, led by Alejandro Litovsky. The support goes to our work on ecosystem services through 2010.
In parallel, we are working on several other projects exploring pathways to scale: (1) a project for the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) on the future of market transparency, traceability, accountability and reporting; (2) a Clean & Cool study mission to San Francisco and Silicon Valley this month, with 20 CEOs from UK cleantech companies, this initiative being developed with Polecat and the Technology Strategy Board; and (3) a project on the overlaps between ageing, entrepreneurship and sustainability, this one with Professor David Grayson of Cranfield University, Dr David Metz – previously Chief Scientist at the UK Department of Transport, and Accenture.
And there’s another project in the pipeline, too, which I’ll report on later.
