Portfolio Advisory

For every project we back, our investment is just the start. We help the teams behind them build stronger organizations and raise the capital they need to grow.

How We Help

More than capital.

Strategy & Growth

We work closely with each team to strengthen their foundations and support their growth. This can include refining strategy, sharpening positioning, stress-testing the business model and shaping the investment case.

Investor & Partner Sourcing

We open doors for our portfolio, making introductions to investors and strategic partners. As investors ourselves, we know each project from the inside, so every introduction we make is one we stand behind.

Tom Wheeler

“Matt has been far more than a donor to Treesistance. As a member of our advisory board and a tireless connector, he has opened doors through his remarkable network that helped us raise significant support for Indigenous-led forest protection. He has stood with us in the forest alongside the communities we serve. Matt is a man of his word and a man of action, and he has been an amazing ally to our mission.”

– Tom Wheeler, Executive Director, Treesistance

“Matt is talented at finding the right relationships that will advance our mission and grow our business...he makes game-changing introductions.”

– Philip Kauders, CEO, Courageous Land

“Matt's powerful introductions helped us close over 50% of our $100M fundraise to reforest the Amazon; he is truly a world-class asset to any team working in the climate space.”

– Peter Fernandez, CEO, Mombak
