Our goal is to strengthen collaboration between Natura &Co Latam and innovative startups for the development of regenerative solutions that integrate into our value chain and extensive corporate network.
For us, regeneration means restoring life to individuals, communities, nature, and relationships. It encompasses sustainability and goes beyond by uniting biodiversity, traditional knowledge, and advanced science to generate a positive impact.
We seek partnerships that share our commitment to life and align with our goals to address the global climate crisis, protect the Amazon, ensure gender parity and inclusion, and embrace circularity and regeneration across all our businesses.
With two decades of experience in global collaborations, we are ready to advance our mission!
