Founded by Sam Teicher and Gator Halpern while at Yale, Coral Vita pioneered the world’s first commercial, land-based coral reef restoration farm. Drawing on the breakthrough research of Dr. David Vaughan (microfragmentation) and the late Dr. Ruth Gates (assisted evolution), the company can grow climate-resilient corals up to 50 times faster than they grow in the wild. These corals are later out-planted onto degraded reefs with survival rates of up to 90%.

The ocean is not only our planet’s largest carbon sink – absorbing 30 times more CO2 than all forests combined – but also a vital resource feeding 3 billion people and generating $2.5 trillion in economic value annually. At 2050, we’ve developed a comprehensive approach to ocean investment that addresses both the challenges and opportunities presented by this critical system to our capacity to live on planet Earth.

In response to the climate emergency and the need for concerted action, 2050 has developed a unique approach combining knowledge and concrete action. This vision first materialised through a transdisciplinary course taught at Paris-Dauphine University since autumn 2020.

In the face of environmental and societal challenges, knowledge is our greatest lever. But to transform the world, we must first touch people’s consciousness. This transformation rests on three essential pillars: raising awareness, sharing relevant knowledge, and demonstrating that concrete solutions already exist.

As 2025 begins, multiple positive signals indicate that the world is moving toward a fertile future. From significant advances in the fight against climate change to industrial innovations and improved ocean understanding, here’s an overview of the promising developments shaping our future. Technological innovation and community engagement are creating positive momentum to approach 2025 with optimism and determination.

At 2050, in collaboration with We Are Human, we have developed the Alignment Method, a holistic framework designed to guide organizations toward long-term and success. The seven pillars presented here are key indicators of alignment (KAI), serving as benchmarks to assess and maintain coherence across individuals, teams, businesses, ecosystems, society and planet.

Imagine a startup as a ship venturing into the uncertain oceans.
