Upplägg och genomförande
Research revealed a rapidly changing landscape with respected established accreditors, being exposed for accrediting several fraudulent projects. The result is a move towards historically financially centric accreditors. To test the market we built an MVP ( minimum viable product ) based on a React framework and webGL. The concept was to tie existing Nature-credits as a sponsorship opportunity to Dialect’s customers which include Coco-Cola, HOKA and North Face outdoor clothing. We have now partnered with Dialect to service thier clients.
