Since 2016, ESA BIC Czech Republic has been supporting the most innovative technology startups that leverage space expertise to drive the Czech innovation ecosystem forward. These companies show that space technologies have huge potential beyond orbit, offering groundbreaking applications in industries such as manufacturing, energy, healthcare, and environmental protection.
We are excited to welcome Zasaď život to the incubation, a company that demonstrates how space can be harnessed in ways that go far beyond traditional boundaries and into surprising new fields. While generally specialising in traditional carbon offsets and reforestation, the team also aims to create a platform, Dream Green, that will stand at the forefront of carbon offset measurement and reforestation monitoring.
With the world’s growing commitment to more responsible and carbon-neutral solutions, Zasaď život aims to offer organisations, government entities, corporations, and others invested in carbon offset initiatives a key tool in the quest for more sustainable practices. By harnessing satellite imagery and advanced algorithms, Dream Green will provide stakeholders with precise measurements, facilitating effective monitoring and verification of carbon sequestration efforts.
What makes Dream Green truly unique is its focus on small-scale projects led by local landowners, NGOs, and grassroots organisations who are often excluded from the carbon credit market due to high financial and administrative barriers. By tailoring the platform specifically to their needs and lowering entry costs, Dream Green aims to make carbon offsetting more accessible to a broader range of participants.
Beyond its focus on inclusivity, Dream Green also offers several advanced technical advantages. The platform will offer frequent, high-resolution satellite imagery combined with proprietary local sensing technologies, enabling precise monitoring and verification of carbon sequestration. Users will benefit from unparalleled accuracy, extensive customisation options, and real-time monitoring capabilities, allowing them to track progress and manage projects effectively through a user-friendly interface. Dream Green will also emphasise regional integration, with a strong focus on Central and Eastern Europe, ensuring that local ecosystems and stakeholders are fully represented in the global carbon offset landscape.
By joining the ESA BIC Czech Republic incubation program, Zasaď život and its Dream Green platform are taking an important step toward integrating advanced space technologies into everyday environmental solutions. Their work empowers a broader community of climate-conscious stakeholders and demonstrates that innovation is not always about exploring distant worlds. Sometimes, it is about using space technology to take better care of the one world we already have.
