“Working with One Tree Planted aligns with Teckro’s ethos of making an impact in the world,” said Gary Hughes, co-founder and chief executive officer. “Digitally interconnected clinical trials are good for the environment with less paper and a reduced need for in-person monitoring visits. This partnership enables us to plant trees in recognition of the sustainable gains achieved with our platform.”
Planting trees is one of the best ways to combat the damaging effects of climate change. Trees help clean the air we breathe, filter the water we drink, and provide habitat to more than 80% of the world’s terrestrial biodiversity. Furthermore, trees are a key ingredient in 25% of all medicines, making reforestation important to the biopharma industry.
“We’re excited to have Teckro’s support for our reforestation project in Ireland,” says Matt Hill, Founder and Chief Environmental Evangelist at One Tree Planted. “We admire their dedication to protecting the environment and raising awareness in the clinical trial industry on the importance of ecosystem restoration.”
The partnership is a simple way for Teckro’s research site users and biopharma customers to contribute to reforestation. Initially, Teckro is committed to support the 200,000-tree project in the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland, where trees are planted by local partner organizations and community volunteers. Over time, Teckro’s financial contribution may support other projects in other regions where there is an urgent reforestation need. You can read more about the partnership in a blog from Gary .

Unlocking Digital Gold’s US$700bn Opportunity19.10.2026 18:00:00 CEST | Press release
The digital gold market, worth US$45–55bn today, could unlock up to US$700bn in latent demand, according to new research from World Gold Council and Boston Consulting Group. The report points to substantial untapped appetite among retail investors, with nearly nine in ten surveyed saying they would consider digital gold under the right conditions. The US$700bn opportunity represents the report’s estimate of total latent demand that could be released if today’s barriers to adoption were removed, rather than a near-term forecast. The report’s five-year base case sees digital gold growing by around 27% a year to US$160–170bn by 2031. That could rise to US$270–280bn over the same time if more barriers fall faster. Momentum is already building as financial markets undergo a broader digital transformation, bringing tokenised investment products increasingly into the mainstream. Tokenised gold, one segment of the digital gold market alongside vaulted digital gold, has grown fivefold in value
