KarbonMap was introduced as a solution to bridge the funding gap for high-quality NbS projects. The platform demonstrated its planned use of the Cardano blockchain to facilitate fractionalized investments, thereby broadening access to sustainable projects.

“The carbon market has historically been opaque, largely because investors are reluctant to disclose their earnings per project. However, recent scandals have fueled a significant push for transparency and decentralization, making this a pivotal moment for change,” said Hien Mai, CEO of KarbonMap. "At KarbonMap, we provide investment arms for carbon projects. If you're wondering whether we're easily replicated, the answer is no. It's actually quite difficult to copy us because we are deeply community-focused, and building strong relationships with the community takes considerable time. Additionally, we possess extensive expertise in certifications and standards, which also require significant time to develop."

We align local livelihoods with global climate interests, building trust for NbS projects.

According to the sharing, real-time KPI and milestone tracking dashboards, provided by KarbonMap, were showcased as a means to enhance transparency and auditability through on-chain data verification. The platform’s potential to democratize investment, making sustainable projects accessible to a wider range of investors, particularly in the Global South, was highlighted.

KarbonMap presented its essential data infrastructure, including satellite data analysis and AI-driven insights, and shared its 2024 achievements of 3.6 million hectares under management and projected 6.3 million carbon credits issued by 2028.

Finally, KarbonMap was presented as an eco-invest bridge to address the growing demand for high-quality, verifiable carbon credits, driven by corporate commitments and expanding Emissions Trading Systems (ETS).
