WELCOME TO KATERVA
Our global environment and economic security are inextricably intertwined. But increasing levels of greenhouse gases, environmental degradation, and natural resource depletion are precluding long-term social and economic security.
Global collaboration and coordinated, distributed action are vital to restore and replenish the world’s environmental and economic ecosystems. The old, siloed ways aren’t working. We need new ways to cooperate and innovate across the public and private sectors to meet the environmental and economic exigencies we face. Unity is needed. Coherence of initiatives is needed. Coalescence of invention, innovation, knowledge and investment is needed.
Katerva is designed to meet this imperative by uniting the people and the technology paramount to catalyzing and supporting sustainable innovation that is exponentially scalable.
The challenges mankind faces are colossal. But so are the courage, ingenuity, wisdom and heart of innovators, entrepreneurs and others the world over. Never before have we had such extraordinary tools for collaborative innovation. Never before have we had the technology to cull the world’s brightest minds and create an actionable platform of support for the common good.

Our Partners
Moving towards sustainability is at the heart of all that Katerva does and stands for. We know that there are many other organisations who share our passion and sense of urgency. Together we are stronger and can increase our impact manifold compared to each of us pursuing our goals on our own. That's why we delight in collaborating and entering partnerships, mutually supporting each other in our contributions on the journey towards sustainability.
Is your organisation part of this journey? We would love to hear from you to see whether we might be able to support each other.
