Environmental intelligence company Earth Blox announced that it has secured £6 million (USD$8 million) in funding, aimed at expanding the company’s operations and enhancing its AI-powered analytics platform to help companies and banks assess the impact of climate and nature risk on assets, supply chains and investment decisions.
Founded in 2019, Edinburgh-based Earth Blox provides tools that integrate satellite, environmental, and financial data to help banks and corporations assess climate and biodiversity risks, and incorporate nature-related insights into investment and operational decision-making.
According to Earth Blox the company’s platform addresses growing demand for tools that help organizations quantify nature-related risks and their financial implications. The UK government’s Nature Security Assessment, published in January 2026, identified ecosystem degradation as a national security risk, while research from S&P Global indicates that 85% of the world’s largest companies depend significantly on nature, placing $28.9 trillion in revenues at risk.
The new funding will be used to expand Earth Blox’s operations, scale its platform capabilities and support growing demand from financial institutions seeking to align portfolios with sustainability goals and manage nature-related risks, the company said.
Dr. Genevieve Patenaude, CEO and founder of Earth Blox, said:
“Businesses are increasingly aware that nature loss and climate risks have direct implications for financial performance, supply chains and long-term resilience. The challenge is turning complex environmental data into information that can support real business decisions. Earth Blox was built to bridge that gap, helping organisations see clearly where environmental change affects value and where investment today can strengthen future performance.”
The funding round was led by PXN Ventures and included existing investor Archangels, alongside participation from Scottish Enterprise and the European Space Agency.
Tom Croy, Investment Director at PXN Ventures, said:
“We believe nature loss and climate change will increasingly shape economic performance and investment decisions over the coming decade. Platforms like Earth Blox will be critical in helping organisations understand these risks and opportunities and direct capital towards more resilient and nature-positive outcomes.”
