Why we invested

With more than 15 million hectares of worldwide grasslands, forests, mangroves under its management, and tens of thousands of credits already sold, Cultivo is setting a new rumbo for carbon credits. We at Rumbo are proud to be supporting Latin-American talent transforming climate entrepreneurship, and Cultivo’s CEO, Manuel Piñuela is a textbook example of the “hows” and “whys” of our investment thesis. Piñuela, backed by a team of scientists, operators, financiers and a strong supporting ecosystem of partners, is already revolutionizing carbon credits and nature-based portfolios through science, data, transparency and trust, allowing for true impact to happen.
