Leadership Forum: Jeff Reece - Spring 2025

Conference/Seminar

Join us for an engaging leadership forum featuring Jeff Reece, a dynamic professional and Huntsman School of Business alum, who thrived in two contrasting careers - one consulting, investment banking and private equity and one in international conservation. Hear from Jeff on his unique perspective from living in two opposing worlds. One world of perpetual growth fuel by extraction, consumption and waster and the other striving for ecological balance and social justice.

Reece is the co-founder of several organizations and initiatives that operate at the intersection of business and conservation. These include:

MarVivo Network: A blue carbon mangrove and marine conservation network within the Eastern Tropical Seascape, encompassing areas such as the Sea of Cortez and the Baja Peninsula.

InfiniteEARTH: A company specializing in developing and managing tropical conservation land banks, providing environmental offsets, and creating private-label corporate social responsibility (CSR) solutions for businesses worldwide.

EcoSmart Labs: A firm offering comprehensive solutions to help asset managers assess and address carbon risk.
