About Pina Earth

Pina Earth is building a suite of digital tools for data collection, monitoring, and certification of forest carbon projects. EU forests are at high risk due to climate change. With Pina Earth, forest owners can start high-quality carbon projects on their properties and use the new income stream to prepare their forests for a changing climate.

Pina Earth and Tree.ly recently joined forces to create Europe's leading forest carbon platform: https://tech.eu/2025/07/29/pina-earth-and-treely-merge-to-create-europes-largest-forest-carbon-platform/

Florian Fincke

My main study background is in HCI (M.Sc. @ LMU in Munich, Germany). I specialized in affective computing & decision-support systems for expert users. Additionally, I attended an add-on study program in Technology Management @ the Center for Digital Technology and Management (CDTM) where I also met my co-founders. Since the beginning of my studies, I was working as a full-stack web and app developer at various early-stage start-ups including Alasco, ORDA, and ShoeSizeMe.
