On 1 October 2026, Francisco Sottomayor, Founding Partner & CIO of AIM Forest, was interviewed at ROOTS 26, the conference organised by Retree in Madrid.
The conversation covered AIM Forest's approach to building an irrigated cork oak platform in southern Portugal, the evolution of carbon markets and natural capital funds, and why we have chosen to pilot Retree's CARBIN satellite-based carbon monitoring at Herdade da Figueira.
Why monitoring matters
Institutional investors and carbon credit buyers increasingly expect transparent, verifiable data on how forests are growing. Remote monitoring complements our field measurements and our certification work under the Verra VCS standard.
