Nature-base enterprises (NBEs) use nature as a core element of their product/service offering. They are independent entities that are engaged in economic activity i.e. ‘the sale of products or services at a given price, on a given/direct market’. Nature-based organisations are similar to nature-based enterprises, but may not operate independently or may not have a trading income. This is the case with nationally owned and operated parks or nature reserves for example. Nature-based enterprises and organisations use nature either directly, or indirectly. Nature may be used directly by growing, harnessing, harvesting or restoring natural resources in a sustainable way and/or indirectly by contributing to the planning, delivery or stewardship of sustainable nature-based solutions.
