The ocean is one of the world's most valuable natural assets, yet it remains one of the least funded.
In this episode of the Blue Earth Podcast, Guy Hayler sits down with Kirsty Schneeberger MBE, Founder and CEO of Athena Blue, to explore how she's building the financial infrastructure needed to unlock investment into ocean restoration and regeneration.
Drawing on experience spanning the Paris Climate Agreement, biodiversity conservation, philanthropy and climate finance, Kirsty shares why she left a successful career to launch Athena Blue, the challenges of fundraising while building a startup, and how better capital allocation could transform the future of the blue economy.
Together, they discuss blue carbon, nature finance, seagrass restoration, investor readiness, and why businesses are increasingly viewing ocean health as a critical risk and opportunity.
If you're interested in climate innovation, ocean investment, entrepreneurship, or the future of nature finance, this is a conversation you won't want to miss.
