  "The CLFV team worked with multiple stakeholders to build a common understanding around project opportunities and hurdles. This helped us develop a project plan and move forward effectively." - Project Manager, Amerada Hess Corporation
Our Background

Who We Are
    CLF Ventures is the non-profit affiliate of the Conservation Law Foundation, New England's most influential environmental advocacy organization. We work with our clients to implement projects that have demonstrable environmental gain and economic advantage.
Our Origin
    The Conservation Law Foundation started CLF Ventures in 1997. At that time, CLF recognized that the challenges facing the environment could not be overcome through litigation and advocacy tools alone. To foster creative, client-centered environmental solutions, CLF launched CLF Ventures.

    Originally operating as an experiment that seized opportunities as they arose, CLF Ventures has evolved to become a well-defined and purposeful organization. We have developed a unique set of capabilities that, in combination with our environmental reputation, lend distinct value to our clients. CLF Ventures gives CLF the chance to say "YES" to ground-breaking, market-based efforts to protect the environment.
Our Approach
    CLF Ventures helps clients in every phase of their business venture, from conception to completion. We understand the issue, craft a strategy, and implement the plan to produce an innovative and durable solution. Proven outcomes of the CLF Ventures approach include:
    • Identification and systematic reduction of project risks
    • Improved relationships with political, regulatory and community stakeholders
    • Reduced project cost and accelerated schedule
    • Enhanced and environmentally leveraged asset value
