Mapping of the Business and Biodiversity Landscape for European Research & Innovation

The role of businesses in addressing biodiversity loss is expanding rapidly, leading to a complex and crowded ecosystem of initiatives, frameworks, standards, and actors operating at global, European, and national levels. For policymakers, researchers, and businesses alike, understanding this landscape has become increasingly challenging.

This mapping provides a structured overview of this evolving field. It identifies key actors, initiatives, policy frameworks, and tools shaping how businesses engage with biodiversity, and highlights gaps, overlaps, and areas where greater coordination or public intervention could add value.
