Our Purpose

Co-creating a regenerative future

At Nū Data, we believe that technology must serve a greater purpose. Our work is driven by the urgent need to create systems and solutions that don't just sustain our planet, but help it regenerate and thrive. Through our data-driven approach, we're building tools that empower organizations to make decisions aligned with both planetary boundaries and human wellbeing.

Our Vision

Democratizing sustainability

Sustainability shouldn't be accessible only to those with vast resources or specialized expertise. Our vision is a world where organizations of all sizes can access the insights they need to make climate-smart decisions. By open-sourcing our framework and creating intuitive tools, we're breaking down barriers to meaningful climate action.

Our Mission

Accelerating climate action

The climate crisis demands urgent response, yet many organizations struggle to move from awareness to action. Nū Data accelerates this journey by transforming complex climate data into clear, actionable insights. We're focused on bridging the gap between identifying problems and implementing solutions, enabling swift and effective climate resilience strategies.

Core Values

Environmental Justice Through Data

We believe data can be a powerful tool for addressing environmental inequities. Our framework prioritizes considerations of justice and fairness, ensuring that climate solutions don't come at the expense of vulnerable communities.

Transparency and Accessibility

We're committed to making our methods, data sources, and decision frameworks transparent and accessible. This commitment extends to our open-source approach, which invites scrutiny, contribution, and collaboration.

Collaborative Innovation

No single organization can solve the climate crisis alone. We actively seek partnerships and collaborations that amplify our collective impact, sharing knowledge and resources to accelerate progress.

Holistic Sustainability

We recognize that true sustainability encompasses environmental, social, economic, and governance dimensions. Our approach integrates these perspectives, considering dual materiality and the complex interplay between human systems and natural ecosystems.

Our Approach

Through our digital twinning technology, we create comprehensive representations of these interconnected systems, enabling more nuanced and effective decision-making.

Nū Data's methodology considers multiple dimensions of sustainability simultaneously:

  • Environmental sustainability - Respecting planetary boundaries and natural resource limits

  • Economic sustainability - Ensuring viable business models that create lasting value

  • Socio-cultural sustainability - Promoting human rights and cultural diversity

  • Socio-political triggers - Recognizing how political shifts influence sustainability efforts

Impact Goals

Our work is aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals, with particular focus on SDG2 (Zero Hunger), SDG12 (Responsible Consumption and Production), and SDG13 (Climate Action). By 2030, we aim to:

  • Help reduce global food loss and waste by 15% through improved supply chain visibility

  • Enable the protection of 5 million hectares of agricultural land through climate-smart practices

  • Support organizations representing over 500 million people in building climate resilience

  • Contribute to a measurable reduction in greenhouse gas emissions from food systems
