FOREST ECOSYSTEM

The Forest Ecosystem Platform turns natural systems into venture-scale companies.

Forest systems are more than timber. They are overlapping biological, material, carbon, water and data systems — each capable of supporting new technologies, products and services.

THE OPPORTUNITY

US Forest Ecosystem

The United States contains extraordinary forest diversity — different climates, species mixes, structures, risk profiles and working landscapes inside one large ecosystem of opportunity.

765Mforest acres in the U.S.
~1,000tree species
~200Kassociated species
7.5%of global forest area

Different climates. Different species mixes. Different structures. Different operating realities. One U.S. Forest Ecosystem.
