Our Ethos: Rooted in Interconnectedness
Our planet is biocultural and collaborative, and our investments and science should be too.
At Kinetik, we’re dedicated to more than just investment. We support early-stage technologies, including biomimicry, that reunite humanity with nature and address critical environmental challenges. We allocate a portion of our resources to advancing science and technology on islands through our Biocultural Innovation Labs..
Our non-profit initiative helps islands establish innovation centers that serve as biocultural blueprints for impactful Nature-Based solutions, honoring their cultural heritage and amplifying local voices. These centers are governed authentically to support economic autonomy and growth. By integrating human ecological principles and advancing the bioeconomy, Kinetik addresses systemic challenges like over-tourism and scientific gaps, fostering innovation that is deeply rooted in local culture. Our approach positions these innovation centers as leaders in the bioeconomy. Kinetik serves as a trusted advisor, ensuring that cultural authenticity and regenerative solutions are at the forefront. This support not only enhances the islands' sustainability and cultural integrity but also contributes to global economic development by promoting equitable and culturally respectful practices.
We are not visitors, but descendants of the tide. Our bond with these islands are carried for generations.
