In this episode of the Blue Earth Podcast, we sit down with serial entrepreneur and Kana Earth founder, Andy Brown, to explore how his decades in fintech are now fuelling a bold mission: making nature investable.


Andy takes us on a journey from launching billion-pound tech platforms to standing in the middle of a peatland north of Inverness, realising the urgent need for scalable, data-driven infrastructure to fund nature recovery.


We talk exits, investor mindsets, the birth of climate hedge portfolios, and why market infrastructure might be the missing piece in unlocking a trillion-dollar nature-based investment economy.


With half the UK’s nature projects already using the Kana platform, and governments lining up to integrate it nationally, this conversation dives deep into the future of environmental finance, the challenges of building in a nascent market, and why now is the moment to invest in nature differently.
