About the Nature Tech Unconference
On 14-15 May 2026, the Nature Tech Collective and LSE Generate hosted the second Nature Tech Unconference at the London School of Economics and Political Science.
We brought some of the brightest minds in the nature tech ecosystem together, and there was something about the way the community gathered that reminded us why convening matters. Over two days, new connections were made, ideas were shared openly, and conversations helped shape what comes next for the ecosystem. The session highlights below capture some of the key discussions and outcomes from across the two days.

What did unconference attendees say?
“My personal highlight was easily the people I met and the conversations I had. Researchers, VCs, start-ups, field practitioners, policy people, and many others, all working on interesting and important problems from different angles.”
“The most interesting conversations at the Nature Tech Collective’s Unconference were not about technology alone. They were about the trade-offs. About uncertainty.
About how restoration decisions are actually made in the real world.”
“The unconference format was relaxed, discussion-led, and genuinely enjoyable. It put engagement at its heart and held that throughout both days. The sessions were interactive, each with practical takeaways you could actually use.”
