KulaDAO and WATAI Join Forces to Advance Sustainable and Equitable Resource Management in Developing Economies

WATAI, a pioneering geotech software company, and KulaDAO, a blockchain-based impact investment platform, have signed an MOU bridging space tech innovation, real world asset management, and climate-resilient development. This partnership merges cutting-edge climate mapping technology with blockchain-powered governance to create systems that regenerate natural capital, accelerate water access, and promote community-inclusive development and governance for underserved communities in East Africa. 

A Shared Vision for Regenerative Resource Development

WATAI brings its proprietary WATEX™ technology to the partnership, offering multi-source data analysis that delivers actionable climate and nature intelligence with unprecedented accuracy. KulaDAO’s RegionalDAO framework ensures transparent, on-chain governance and equitable profit-sharing for local communities, aligning stakeholders across agriculture, mining, and other critical resource industries. 

As part of the agreement, KulaDAO’s project partners and RegionalDAO stakeholders will gain access to WATAI’s advanced insights, enabling operations that optimize resources, reduce environmental impact, and improve livelihood of host communities. Together, the two organizations aim to empower “Water & Nature Guardians” with tools to manage natural resources and in East Africa. 

“Technology is just a tool. The real impact comes from enabling communities to take ownership of their resources,” said Clément J. Gachet, founder of WATAI. “Partnering with KulaDAO increases our strategic reach, enabling us to support more guardians through their innovative governance system.

Setting New Standards for Equity and Growth

This partnership addresses global challenges in water, nature and resource management by integrating precision technology with regenerative planning and equitable governance systems. By providing WATAI’s advanced insights and solutions to KulaDAO ecosystem partners, the collaboration delivers financial, social, and environmental returns while driving climate resilience.

“At KulaDAO, we believe in creating shared value by aligning technology, community, and sustainability. Partnering with WATAI allows us to integrate unique, cutting-edge climate insights into our RegionalDAO ecosystem, ensuring that natural resource management is not just optimally effective but also inclusive and regenerative,” says Chris Turner, Co-Founder of KulaDAO.

What’s Next?

The MOU was officially signed in November 2024 to launch the first pilot project in mid-2025. The partnership plans scaling these initiatives across East Africa and beyond, building inclusive models for regenerative water water access and natural resources development, fostering long-term economic growth.
