Businesses are fed up of funding green initiatives that aren’t relatable, credible or real.

We work with the best climate academics and researchers to find credible academics projects that are delivering genuine science.

We find Investors who want to make their green investments work harder for them. Delivering climate stories they want to tell.

We have worked with:

Strategic Objectives

1. Make science happen.
Impact: To get more scientists and researchers into the field.

Intent: Harness business resources to support climate science initiatives and use our expertise to assist researchers in accessing complex, remote, and dynamic environments.
2. Be science led.
Impact: Only support expeditions that deliver genuine science outcomes and impacts.

Intent: Use the best academics, through our steering committees, to determine those projects that will deliver the greatest impact and scientific output. Mimick the rigor and credibility delivered by government academic grant applications processes.
3. Communicate science to all.
Impact: To educate and influence through science communication.

Intent: To produce a new type of science communication and marketing that inspire and engage at all levels and on all platforms.
4. Full circle projects.
Impact: Cradle to science publication projects

Intent: Deliver real research projects and real researchers’ stories businesses can trust, be proud to showcase and follow throughout their life cycle.
5. Faster Research.
Impact: Bring speed and efficiency to the grant application and field work process.

Intent:   Make the process of application faster and easier for researchers. Partnering with businesses that need a quick turnaround, we use a business focussed approach to deliver more science and more science marketing.

Why Expedition Science?

We are science led.

Working with the worlds leading climate scientists and the most innovative investors we make science happen.

Having worked with the academic community for decades we know who is conducting the most critical climate research projects and what researchers need to keep learning more about the environment. We are science led.

Having worked with businesses and investors in many global sectors we know that you need credible stories that represent who you are as an organisation and what you stand for. For your clients, for your staff and for your investors we tell science stories.

Frequently asked questions

More FAQs

What field expeditions are you looking for?

We are looking to fund scientific research primarily conducted in rural and/or remote locations which fall under the following themes: forest, mountain, ocean and polar. Although proposed fieldwork should be away from the urban environment, applications which include fieldwork in both rural/urban locations are welcomed.

What part of my research are you looking to support?

If your researcher application is successful, we will connect you to funding to support the fieldwork component of your project. Our aim is to place more researchers into the field to get required data which is often logistically difficult and expensive.

What kind of research do I need to be conducting?

Your research needs to incorporate an aspect of climate science under one or more of the four themes listed above. Ideally, it would have a link to the impact of climate change on our environment on either a local or global scale. Please get in touch if you are unsure whether your project fits within our climate brief before applying.

What Branches of science do you support?

We support any climate research with a clear fieldwork component. This can include, but not limited to, the fields of: biochemistry, biology, botany, chemistry, earth sciences, mathematics, oceanography, physics, oceanography and zoology. Please get in touch if your climate research falls outside of these general fields but are still interested in applying.

Do I have to be working or studying in a university or college?

No, however we ask that you are currently directly involved in a climate science project with an academic institution, government, or foundation. You do not have to be employed by them but your research must be linked to the above institutions.

My Expedition includes science. Can I apply?

Yes, we will only fund expeditions involving climate research. Non-research based trips, e.g. trips for-profit, or simply the adventure are not eligible for funding.

I want to piggyback onto an existing expedition to get access/field support.

Climate scientists applying with the aim to join an existing expedition to the same region to support you logistically or operationally are eligible to apply (e.g. mountaineering trip) however your key objectives and outcomes must be focussed on climate science and collecting data for your research.

Do applications close?

You can apply for project funding or register as a researcher at any time. We are always keen to connect funding to climate researchers.

What if my project gets funded elsewhere or changes in scope?

Please contact us if project gets funded elsewhere or if it changes in scope. If additional funding is still required, we will keep your application on our database and keep you informed of any other relevant funding opportunities.

What if I don’t have a finalised expedition or field work trip planned yet but I want to hear about those interested in my area of research or the region I work in?

If your expedition is not finalised but clear on scientific outputs, then please fill out the application form with all available information. It might be that an opportunity comes along that will be useful for your research even though your fieldwork plans aren’t yet finalised.

Can I register an interest but not a finalised expedition?

We are looking to support the fieldwork component of your climate research. You are welcome to get in touch to register an interest, however researcher applications are only eligible for funding fieldwork planned.

Do I have to be British?

We want to support anyone who has a valid research project from anywhere in the world. Applications from regions where there are a lack of broad datasets as well as geographic areas that have traditionally struggled for funding are particularly encouraged.

Saving our planet is no longer a scientific challenge.

It's a communication challenge
