The problem
The world has no shortage of resources to build the future we need. It has a shortage of practical, actionable conversations between those who have them, those who transform them, and the environment with which they interact.
01
Access to green capital
There are resources available and eligible projects, but they do not connect. The problem is not a lack of willingness: it is one of information, structure, and eligibility criteria that few organisations know with precision.
02
Sustainability as part of the business strategy
Sustainability exists as a commitment, but it is neither generating value nor integrated into operations. The gap between ESG narrative and financial metrics is technical, not a matter of intention.
03
Technical and institutional capacity
There is willingness or a regulatory mandate, but the tools and people to execute are lacking. Building real capacity takes time and requires support from within, not just external training.

Nosotros

Clara, Javier, and Juana bring together over five decades of combined experience facilitating these conversations between the private sector, the public sector, national and multilateral banking, international cooperation, and civil society.Their purpose is to cataliXe capital investments towards where they generate the greatest value — for business, for the region, and for society — connecting those with resources to those who transform them, creating a common language.Catalix's vision is encapsulated in a world in which "sustainability" is not an additional layer on business and policy decisions, but the lens through which they are made from the very beginning."

Juana Camacho Otero, Ph.D.
I transform the complexity of sustainability into evidence-based strategic decisions. My approach combines applied research, field-based work, and participatory processes to build strategies that address both the reality of organisations and the expectations of their stakeholders. For over 20 years, I have advised businesses, governments, and international organisations, including the IDB, the UNDP, Fondo Acción, and the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU). I integrate scientific evidence, local expertise, and stakeholder participation to create robust projects tailored to their context.

Clara Sofía Gómez Botero
I cataliXe processes where organisation leadership understands sustainability as a strategic value driver, as well as a key element of risk management. For over 20 years at KPMG, GeoPark, MinVivienda, and WWF, I have supported businesses, financial institutions, and international organisations. My experience in leadership and consultancy roles enables me to connect public policy, investor expectations, people, and nature to design viable solutions, mobilise capital, and strengthen organisations' competitiveness in an increasingly demanding environment. Highlighted projects include strengthening green credit lines for Colombian development banking, as well as creating mortgage, educational, and productive credit lines. I have led teams structuring corporate strategies, renewable energy, and infrastructure projects, among others.

Javier Humberto Sabogal Mogollón
I connect sustainability, finance, and public policy to convert the sustainability agenda into concrete results. With over 20 years of experience in entities such as the World Bank, the IDB, CAF, the Ministries of Finance and Environment, the British Embassy, and WWF, I have led the structuring of projects and strategies in climate change, forests, water resources, and green finance — from designing the country's first climate finance strategy to directing forestry and land-use programmes. My strength lies in translating complex technical and regulatory frameworks into strategic decisions that mobilise investment and real impact.
Success cases
Most organisations speak one of these languages: business and financial, sustainability (ESG), and policy. We speak all three and know how to integrate them. This enables us to build solutions that work for all parties.
