Startup Natureval wins the UNSW Founders New Wave Showcase. Natureval evaluates and quantifies the environmental, social and economic benefits of urban green infrastructure to support public and private sector decision-making.
Meeting for the first time in the program, Linda Romanovska, Isabella Notarpietro, Kathy Liu and Vicky Wei collaborated to help commercialise Linda’s PhD findings and develop a user-friendly, adaptable and evidence-based piece of software.
While nature in the city is highly beneficial it remains severely undervalued, says UNSW Built Environment PhD candidate, Linda Romanovska. “I joined the UNSW Founders New Wave program to explore the viability of transforming my research into a feasible product and/or service to help urban developers worldwide.”
