🦉 About Hula Earth
Biodiversity has declined 70% in the last 50 years, yet funding and accurate data for nature investments remain limited. Hula Earth tackles this gap with tech-driven solutions, combining satellite insights and our proprietary IoT sensor network to make nature investments scalable, actionable, and measurable.

At the end of 2024, we raised a €1.6M pre-seed round with top European investors, including Point Nine Capital and angels like Lawrence Leuschner (TIER Mobility) and Kilian Kaminski (refurbed). We’re now focused on growing traction and preparing for a strong Seed round.
