Team & Board

“The concept of BaumInvest just convinced me I can use my competencies and experience exactly where they can be used in a meaningful way – in a continuous investment in bringing nature, economy and social aspects in harmony with each other.That is pioneering work for the good of others.”

“As an economist, I am attracted by the simplicity of the BaumInvest approach: an investment in land and sustainable forestry that provides multiple benefits. Reforestation and CO₂ sequestration are also exciting future markets for the next two decades. The BaumInvest share is a building block that our children will also benefit from.”

“I am concerned that we have to change the way our economy works in order to stop the destruction of habitats, as well as the loss of biodiversity as a result of climate change. For me, BaumInvest is acting as an exemplary model with aforestry concept that is economically attractive and ecologically effective.”

“What motivates me the most is being able to view the fruits of our labor at the end of each day: seeing our natural forests grow one tree at a time. Additionally, the everyday work is just filled with life – because of the team work that spans across two continents, and cooperation between different universities who remain in immediate contact with our shareholders.”

“Five minutes with my camera in one of BaumInvest AG’s reforestation areas in Costa Rica fully convinced me of the project.”

„The nice thing about my work is that I can develop freely and give free rein to my creativity. My motivation is to contribute meaningfully to an innovative company that actually lives sustainability and tackles social challenges with nature-based solutions.“

“Again and again, it is exciting to play a part within a motivated and qualified team who shares the same vision as me. BaumInvest is a living example of a sustainable economy and I would love to see their concept replicated around the world in similar projects.”

“Sustainability is one of the solutions for the ecological challenges of the future and knowing that I am part of the solution makes me arrive at work with a smile everyday. It is exhilarating to be part of an extraordinary team in which everyone enjoys working together towards the same goal.”

„I have always wanted to really support the protection of species and the environment. With my work at BaumInvest, I am making my contribution to a solution that I also really trust.“

„I like working at BaumInvest – something is always moving here. I’m also glad that I can do my core competences like: Disposing of employees’ food, spreading good humour and occasionally barking at annoying postmen – in the office in Freiburg and not in our forests in Costa Rica.“

“At a time when commercial activity needs to be developed in harmony with the environment, when climate change, adaptability and the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions are key issues, working at BaumInvest is an excellent opportunity to contribute to global environmental sustainability.”

“My main motivation for working at BaumInvest is participating in the intercultural exchange between Costa Rica and Germany while promoting social and economic well-being. This enabled me to refine my professional skills and apply them outside of this organization as well.”

„For me, BaumInvest combines sustainability with direct implementation. Due to the closely linked areas, the work is varied and I can always continue my education. The variety between working in the office and directly on the fincas defines the dream job for me and that’s exactly what I get to do.“

“I can’t find the words to express how fulfilling working for nature is to me. In a time when climate change and sustainable development are key challenges, growing healthy forests is critical to secure our future in this planet. BaumInvest gives me a chance to help with all I can in this matter.”

“Creating ecological sustainability spaces that go hand in hand with the protection and recreation of the forest is a gift for the future. BaumInvest gives me the opportunity to contribute to that future.”

“I enjoy working for BaumInvest because I have been pursuing this work since a young age. It’s great to have gained the knowledge from this experience that it is possible to protect the environment with meaningful and sustainable reforestation.”

“It’s a pleasure for me to be part of BaumInvest and to do the job as a forester here, to help protect forests and animals.”

„My motivation to work for BaumInvest is my contribution to climate protection because we improve flora and fauna and counteract climate change by creating near-natural mixed forests.“

“What do we want? Climate justice! When do we want it? Now!’ I can still hear these calls for change ringing in my ears from the Friday for Future demonstrations. At BaumInvest, everyone can start the change here and now. This is the kind of project we need if we want the concept of climate justice to be realised.”

“This endeavour is looking for a new path along the values of equality and social responsibility. To me, this is a matter of the heart. In this very long-term oriented investment, we want to find methods that are self sustaining and therefore can be replicated and expanded. Earning money is not an end in itself but just a means to an end.BaumInvest is a commitment and an act of environmental justice.”

“As a member of the BaumInvest board, I can always apply my skills right where they are needed in this future-oriented and sustainable project. I am deeply convinced of the economic and ecological relevance of this AG and excited to shape it. For a promising future, we have to tackle this together.”

„“Being able to shape a project and help it grow to become a AG symbolises growth in two ways. If idealism and the wish for a sustainable company meet, it is possible to create something truly special. I work here and I will continue to do so with pride.“

„With my commitment to BaumInvest, I want to encourage even more people to privately invest in the green revolution in order to shape a sustainable future with silviculture.”

„Globally speaking, there are only a few financially successful investments in reforestation that follow ecological standards and and support social quality – but they exist and I believe BaumInvest is one of them.“
