Case study: Fewer wildfires, more biodiversity

Across the United States, wildfires are intensifying, turning vast forest areas to ash and putting people and nature under mounting pressure. New solutions are needed to manage land more intelligently and act before small sparks become major disasters.

Via its Private Global Impact Solution (PGIS), Van Lanschot Kempen invests in an innovative platform that uses advanced data and AI to rethink how forests are mapped, monitored and managed. This makes quicker, more coordinated action on the ground possible.

Discover how this approach helps reduce wildfire risk and support biodiversity in the full case study.
