Startup Profile

Kora Sustainability

Riga, Latvia

Kora rewards individuals and entities for decarbonization.

The Problem:

Scope 3 carbon footprints can account for an overwhelmingly large portion of a companies total emissions, however, most corporations have found his effort to be difficult and costly.

The Solution:

Kora rewards individuals and entities for decarbonization. We created an economic value for CO2 reduction by rewarding individuals for sustainable actions and connecting their actions to corporates' scope 3 reductions (as consumers and employees). Kora is the only company to combine real-time tracing, a tangible reward system, and gamification, which are essential for a solid and long-term engagement of users in changing their sustainability habits.

The Differentiator:

To date, Kora is the only solution that combines: a. real-time tracing, b. a tangible reward system, and c. gamification, which are essential for a solid and long-term engagement of users in changing their sustainability habits. From all the solutions we have seen so far in the market, Kora is the only solution in the decarbonization/sustainability sector that provides the solution combining these elements. Hence, many of our competitors can also become partners.
