In a significant step towards enhancing sustainable development, Napital has officially signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with AECOM Hong Kong. This strategic partnership aims to accelerate the implementation of the Natural Capital Initiative and deliver a series of pioneering natural capital projects across the region.
Following successful collaborations on the Natural Capital Manifesto and the inaugural pilot project on Bintan Island, Napital and AECOM are poised to leverage their combined expertise in conservation, digital innovation, and sustainability. The partnership will focus on creating high-performance ecosystems that not only restore biodiversity but also drive economic benefits through natural capital investments.
The Natural Capital Initiative highlights the urgent need for businesses to recognise the value of nature and its resources. By integrating natural capital into corporate strategies, companies can achieve measurable gains in Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) performance. This aligns with AECOM's commitment to harnessing technology for transformative outcomes, as emphasised in their Investing in Nature project.
Napital’s mission centres on scaling up nature recovery to reshape economies around ecological health. By collaborating with AECOM, which has established frameworks for natural capital quantification and monitoring, the partnership aims to set new benchmarks for sustainability in Asia Pacific.
“This partnership marks a pivotal moment in our efforts to drive meaningful change through nature-based solutions,” said Bosco Tse, Director of Operation from Napital. “Together with AECOM, we will implement innovative strategies that not only protect our environment but also enhance community livelihoods.”
As both organisations embark on this journey, they remain committed to fostering cross-sector collaboration, ensuring that conservation efforts translate into real-world benefits for businesses and communities alike.
