We are delighted to announce that Saskia Feast, Natural Capital Partners’ Vice President for the Western Region of the United States, has been promoted to Managing Director, Global Client Solutions, replacing Mark LaCroix who retired at the end of 2020.

Saskia has led Natural Capital Partners’ growth over the last five years, working closely with our corporate clients to craft innovative climate action solutions for forward-thinking businesses such as HP, Salesforce, VMware, Synopsys and Kaiser Permanente as they address their emissions. 

In her new role, Saskia will continue to deliver high-quality, high-impact, and value-driving solutions for our customers, drawing on her deep technical expertise and industry knowledge to continue developing key insights into how corporate climate action is evolving.

Prior to Delta, he was a leading member of Accenture’s Smart Cities and Sustainability Strategy practices. 

Miguel has spent his career working with corporates and municipalities to deploy products and services globally to improve resilience, quality of life, environmental health, and social impact.
