At BIO4EST, we transform degraded areas into sustainable opportunities. Through innovative territorial management solutions, we help capture carbon, preserve biodiversity, and increase the value of your assets. Offset your company or institution footprint with projects that generate positive environmental and economic impact.
During my term as a Member of the European Parliament, I took responsibility for offsetting my ecological footprint. After an unsatisfactory experience with reforestation projects, I was motivated to create an effective and transparent commercial solution.
BIO4EST was born from that mission: transforming degraded public and private land into carbon-capture areas focused on biodiversity regeneration. Today, we help people, companies, and institutions offset their footprint with measurable economic impact.
To limit the rise in global temperature, it is essential to reduce emissions and capture carbon from the atmosphere. The Portuguese Government created the Voluntary Carbon Market to support footprint offsetting and carbon-capture projects.
BIO4EST operates in this market with Carbon+ capture projects and ecosystem services always focused on biodiversity regeneration.

On 20 May, Francisco Guerreiro, founder and CEO of BIO4EST, was a speaker at the showcase event for the start-ups incubated at HIESE. The aim of the event was to bring the incubated projects together and demonstrate the potential for partnerships between companies from various sectors of the economy.
