Abstract

This paper provides key insights into different forest-­‐based business cases with positive ecological and social impacts, based on results from the ongoing research project ‘Business Cases for Biodiversity’, carried out by a research consortium consisting of the Copernicus Institute of Utrecht University, Nyenrode Business University and WWF Netherlands. Based on the collection and analysis of >150 examples of business cases across industries, the project provides content and process knowledge for practitioners aiming to develop business with a positive effect on biodiversity. The project is initiated and financed by the Dutch Ministry of Economy, Agriculture and Innovation (ELI).
