Pete Corke
Pete is part of the founding team at Kwaxala, an Indigenous-led, majority-owned regenerative forestry network and investment fund. Through Living Forest Shares, Kwaxala enables funders to invest in revenue-generating, Indigenous-owned forest projects—while ensuring that Indigenous stewards retain the bulk of revenues and asset value, safeguarding sovereignty and building multi-generational wealth.
Kwaxala’s model transforms the colonial right to extract into an Indigenous right to regenerate, and is designed for scalable, global application. Its pilot in British Columbia has already delivered an 18,500-acre first phase. Pete has helped launch ventures across sectors in both the corporate and startup worlds. He’s a systems thinker, environmentalist, and believer in re-orienting economic models toward life.
