Quadrature Climate Foundation was established in 2019 by the founders of Quadrature Capital, a market neutral investment fund that uses algorithms to predict and trade global financial markets. Initially, the founders were passionate about supporting causes that addressed poverty, inequality, and suffering. In 2018, they came to understand the way the climate crisis superimposed onto these challenges, eroding efforts to fight famine, support refugees, and manage natural disasters. This perspective led them to focus the foundation on the climate crisis, as the most urgent challenge of our time.

The Nature Positive Economy CRC brings together first movers in nature-impacting, nature-dependent, capital intensive and enabling industry sectors with high quality researchers to maximise impact. Together, we will identify how nature technology and service suppliers can best service this market and provide financial organisations with the tools they need to prove their green credentials, avoiding greenwashing. We will also work with clusters of Australian businesses to develop case studies for these tools demonstrating how they can achieve commercial, environmental and social success.

Their purpose is to bring deeply impactful research and projects to life.
