BETHESDA, Md., December 15, 2025 /3BL/ – Tandem Global, a leading NGO working at the intersection of business, climate, water and nature, released it’s 2025 Trends Report, which examines how the private sector is responding to the nature crisis, highlighting key trends and opportunities in corporate engagement with nature.
The Report was developed from extensive research, a survey of Tandem Global members, and decades of working at the intersection of business and nature. The insights and information gathered were synthesized to identify key opportunities for businesses to strengthen their engagement with nature and biodiversity. These findings informed the development of practical recommendations designed to support companies in adopting nature-positive strategies, align with emerging policy frameworks, and enhance meaningful biodiversity outcomes.
Key opportunities for corporate engagement with nature include:
- Accelerate nature action through collaboration (peers, cross-industry) and learning from others challenges and successes of early adopters and leaders.
- Proactively evaluate the ability to meet emerging requirements in other regions like Europe to anticipate future policy shifts, reduce potential compliance risks, and become a leader within your market.
- Integrate nature and biodiversity with other sustainability priorities such as climate, water, and community engagement. In doing so, deliver co-benefits across multiple sustainability goals to increase leadership buy-in and reduce competition among sustainability topics.
- Align actions and commitments/targets to a company’s nature-related impacts and risks. If commitments/targets relate to climate or water, consider how nature and biodiversity action can support them.
- Identify and integrate monitoring technologies and tools that capture metrics to communicate the ROI and benefits of a project and feed into commitments and targets set, while limiting potential externalities these technologies may introduce.
“Even as environmental degradation accelerates, deregulation, particularly in the U.S., has increased, making the private sector’s role in reversing nature loss more critical than ever,” said Anna Willingshofer, Chief Science and Innovation Officer at Tandem Global. “Across our work with more than 100 corporations around the world, we see companies advancing nature-positive action because they recognize it is essential to their long-term resilience and responsibility.”
