Meet the Team

The word Gens means “tribe or family” in Latin. We are a small agile team with an extensive network of partners that we pull in based on the needs of our work.

Olivier is a systems integrator that guides visions, strategies and implementation. He connects the dots between challenges and opportunities at different layers and enables ecosystems to thrive.

Patricia’s unique genius is sense making and network weaving. Just like mycelium, she builds projects that connect key stakeholders and let’s mutual value flow based on their personal needs.

Riina shines at building, writing and leading projects. Her operational skills and experience span policy, sustainability & regenerative agriculture and are driven by her commitment to lasting impact.

Gens is always looking for skilled and passionate people who want to be part of a regenerating farmland and farming businesses. Get in touch with us and let’s have a talk!

Purpose driven

To support its mission, Gens has adopted the principles of steward-ownership, making us a not-for-profit enterprise and embedding our mission in our legal DNA. These principles allow us to combine the entrepreneurial drive of for-profit enterprises with a continued commitment to deliver societal value through our services and reinvest in our mission and stakeholders.
