Nature’s Intelligence Studio

Overview
The Nature’s Intelligence Studio is a flagship initiative of Oxford’s TIDE Centre, developed in partnership with CAF, to accelerate nature‑inspired innovation for the energy transition and sustainable development. Drawing on the biological intelligence of high‑biodiversity regions such as the Amazon, the Studio brings together researchers, innovators and community partners to translate nature’s principles into practical, scalable technologies, including through the international Nature’s Intelligence Ideathon. The initiative also promotes fair benefit‑sharing with the communities whose biodiversity supports discovery, helping align conservation, innovation and industrial decarbonisation.
