Welcoming Superorganism to the Portfolio

We're thrilled to announce our investment in Superorganism, the first venture capital fund purpose-built entirely around biodiversity. This investment represents more than backing breakthrough nature-tech companies—it's a strategic bet on transforming how capital markets value and invest in the living systems that sustain us all.

Superorganism exemplifies our systemic investing approach by operating at multiple leverage points simultaneously. As ecosystem pioneers, they're not just funding individual companies but building the coalition infrastructure needed for systems transformation. Their 3,500+ subscriber community, mentor network of conservation scientists, and partnerships across 20+ major organizations demonstrate the collaborative, participatory approach we believe drives lasting change.

What excites us most is how Superorganism embodies the mindset shift we're working to catalyze—from viewing "nature as resource" to embracing "nature as teacher and partner." Their investment thesis directly challenges prevailing industry paradigms by demonstrating that protecting biodiversity can yield venture-scale returns. This creates a powerful proof of concept that regenerative economic models can compete with and ultimately replace harmful incumbents.

The fund reflects sophisticated thinking in its integrated approach—addressing extinction drivers, climate-biodiversity solutions, and enabling technologies—and highlights the interconnectedness of our current challenges. By investing in the transition of industries most responsible for biodiversity loss while simultaneously building measurement frameworks and market infrastructure, they're activating multiple intervention points within the same system.

For Stray, this investment advances our broader mission of catalyzing transformative capital for regenerative systems. Superorganism's success would validate our hypothesis that purpose-driven funds can demonstrate financial viability while driving narrative change—opening pathways for the larger capital reallocation needed to foster harmony between human systems and nature.
