Radius Zero and Kana Earth announce strategic partnership

Kana Earth and RadiusZero have announced a strategic partnership to address the structural barriers limiting the scale and financing of global nature and carbon markets. Together, the companies provide an integrated digital platform and delivery solution that enables institutional capital to engage with nature-based and carbon projects with confidence, transparency, and scale.

The partnership combines Kana Earth's digital infrastructure for project and portfolio management with RadiusZero's end-to-end delivery support and strong technical oversight. It creates an efficient operating model that simplifies how developers bring high-integrity nature and carbon projects to market, enables asset managers to deploy and manage capital through a portfolio management system, and supports corporates in translating climate and nature commitments into deliverable projects with robust, transparent reporting.

Addressing structural challenges in nature and carbon markets

Despite growing demand, nature and carbon markets continue to face well-documented constraints: fragmented and inconsistent data, manual compliance processes, limited visibility across projects and portfolios, and high perceived delivery and integrity risk. These issues have been exacerbated by the historical absence of a centralised system to support project delivery and ongoing monitoring.

The Kana Earth–RadiusZero partnership directly addresses these challenges by combining digital infrastructure with end-to-end delivery support and strong technical oversight. This approach enables projects to be developed, managed, and invested into efficiently, and ensures that the resulting units can be effectively managed and reported on for corporates.

An integrated platform and delivery model

Kana Earth provides the digital infrastructure that makes nature and carbon projects investable. Its platform connects supply-side participants, asset managers, and corporates within a single, integrated system.

Through its core products, Kana Hub and Kana Seed, Kana Earth supports the full project and investment lifecycle. Kana Hub powers the development and management of high-integrity nature-based projects, supporting feasibility planning, project design, implementation, and ongoing monitoring. It provides intuitive tools for compliance management, workflow coordination, inventory tracking, and marketing.

Kana Seed integrates directly into Kana Hub, enabling institutional investors and corporates to identify projects aligned with their mandates while providing advanced capabilities for pipeline and deal execution, portfolio allocation tracking, valuation, and client reporting.

RadiusZero complements this infrastructure with end-to-end project and portfolio delivery. Working directly with project developers, corporates, and asset managers, RadiusZero coordinates project design, certification and verification processes, MRV delivery, stakeholder engagement, and ongoing performance and P&L oversight. This ensures that real-world delivery aligns with institutional requirements for governance, timelines, and risk management.

Together, the platform and delivery model create an efficient operating model for developing, investing in, and managing projects, while enabling corporates to translate climate and nature commitments into deliverable projects with robust reporting.

Supporting market participants

The partnership is designed to serve the full ecosystem of nature and carbon markets:

• Asset managers gain a portfolio-grade system to deploy and manage capital into high-integrity projects with the same rigour applied to other investment strategies, supported by advanced tools for pipeline and deal execution, portfolio allocation tracking, and valuation.
• Corporates are supported in moving from climate and nature commitments to credible, verifiable delivery, with clear visibility into project progress, risk, and impact.
• Project developers benefit from integrated technical, compliance, and delivery support, reduced administrative burden, and direct connection to investors and buyers through a single digital ecosystem.

Global deployment and regional focus

RadiusZero is already active across Africa and South America and will support the deployment of Kana Earth's platform into new regions and project pipelines.

In Brazil, RadiusZero, working in conjunction with Câmaralog, its local representative, will lead commercialisation and deployment. This localised approach ensures market relevance and authenticity while enabling participants to access improved reporting, stronger governance, and institution-ready project structures. Additional regional communications will follow in other priority markets, including Kenya.

Leadership perspectives

Andy Creak, Co-founder and CEO of Kana Earth, said:

"RadiusZero is our bridge into the world's most promising carbon regions. They bring the integrity, scientific credibility, and international delivery expertise that unlock real impact and real investment at a global scale."

Natasha Rothbucher-Thomas, Founder and CEO of RadiusZero, added:

"Integrity and transparency are non-negotiable if climate finance markets are going to scale. Kana Earth has built the interoperable infrastructure the market needs, and RadiusZero will support deployment into new regions and project pipelines, providing hands-on delivery and certification expertise from inception through issuance."

Looking ahead

By combining robust digital infrastructure with experienced on-the-ground delivery, Kana Earth and RadiusZero are building the foundations required to unlock institutional investment in nature and carbon markets at scale. The partnership sets out a clear model for how high-integrity projects can be financed and delivered.
