BITKRAFT Ventures Partners with Terraformation
BITKRAFT Ventures, an investment platform for gaming and interactive media, and Terraformation, a tech-accelerated forestry company, announced a reforestation partnership focused on the restoration of biodiverse forests and seed banking.
Founded by ex-Reddit CEO Yishan Wong, Terraformation’s vision is to bring Silicon Valley’s techniques for rapid growth to forest restoration. Forests represent the most immediately available and effective means of carbon capture. Addressing the largest bottlenecks to forest restoration at scale, Terraformation team members come from a diversity of fields, including carbon sensing, botany, fintech and logistics, and from organisations such as Paypal, Facebook, Flexport and NASA, giving the company a unique combination of expertise in tech, scaling and forestry. Terraformation currently manages several projects in Hawaiʻi and works with partners across five continents.
“At BITKRAFT, we are driven not only to help shape the future of gaming and synthetic reality, but in the process of doing so set a standard for how we aspire to embody responsible entrepreneurship. This endeavor began with our formal commitment to diversity and representation in service of building a more inclusive future. Our partnership with Terraformation reflects our commitment to building a more sustainable one as well. Working with Terraformation’s team will drive our reforestation efforts and empower our partners, stakeholders and portfolio companies to provide critical environmental aid, and collectively advance the mission of sustaining our planet for generations to come. Beyond creating a direct impact on the greater causes of the moment, we are hopeful our actions inspire similar engagement across our community and industry, as we know that meaningful progress in these areas will require the work of many.”
To start, BITKRAFT will support two Terraformation projects:
ReClimate, Ukraine – an NGO, founded by three women entrepreneurs, that creates a sustainable model of forest management, bringing together local foresters and small businesses to maintain the restoration of the biodiverse forests in the Rivne region in Ukraine. To date, 300,000 trees have been planted, and the project has prevented over 100 forest fires in the last three years as well as created dozens of jobs to plant and protect the forest and supported the preservation of 80+ species of rare animals. BITKRAFT will be ReClimate’s first international sponsor, enabling the planting of 10,000 trees. This project was selected prior to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, and both Terraformation and BITKRAFT are undeterred in their efforts to support ReClimate’s instrumental forest restoration work.
The Kilimanjaro Project, Tanzania – a grassroots initiative activating community leaders and local partners to create a scalable restoration initiative around Mount Kilimanjaro, Tanzania, in East Africa. BITKRAFT’s commitment to supporting a reforestation seed bank will help the project’s goal of planting 10 million trees within the next seven years across 13,500 hectares, benefiting over 350,000 people while capturing millions of tonnes of carbon.
“Trees are the world’s most promising carbon capture solution, with potential for immediate impact. To solve climate change, we must plant 1 trillion new trees across the planet by 2030. Every tree begins as a seed, so to make reforestation at scale possible, we need to establish a continuously stocked supply of millions of seeds in every location where we can regrow forests. Terraformation’s goal in 2022 is to establish the world’s largest decentralized native seed banking network. Partnership is the key to achieving any goal of import, and especially to unlocking the solutions to climate change. We’re thrilled to join with BITKRAFT, ReClimate and the Kilimanjaro Project in this climate solution,” Yishan Wong, founder and CEO of Terraformation, said.
Led by Terraformation’s Head of Global Business Development Celia Francis, the investments committed to ReClimate and the Kilimanjaro Project are fulfilled in partnership with ImpactAssets, a leading nonprofit specialising in impact investing and donor-advised funds providing the expenditure responsibility grant oversight for the initiative.

GKL Gemeinsame Klassenlotterie der Länder (A.ö.R.) is taking the next major step in its digital transformation. The company has awarded the contract for its new lottery system to IT service provider adesso. In a Europe-wide tender process, adesso won out over international competitors with its comprehensive package of solutions.
At the heart of the partnership is the development and implementation of a completely new lottery system based on adesso’s own LotteryForce platform. The solution is complemented by a high-performance customer relationship management system based on Salesforce technology and secure, future-proof hosting on the adesso business cloud, operated in Germany. Ongoing IT operations will be handled by a specialised application management team from adesso.
The project volume amounts to around 32 million euros. The contract between the two partners will run for a period of 15 years.
Future-proof platform for a traditional lottery format
GKL Gemeinsame Klassenlotterie der Länder (A.ö.R.) is a lottery provider supported by all 16 German federal states, and is also the organiser of the NKL and SKL lotteries. Following the modernisation of its core technical system, GKL is repositioning its platform for the coming years with the aim of optimising processes, providing better support for sales partners and further developing the customer experience.
“In adesso, we have found a partner who understands our industry, knows our structures and has the technological expertise to deliver an integrated, end-to-end solution,” says Jörg Scheidhammer, CIO at GKL. “Not only does adesso offer the best technology, but it also provides a team that will support us holistically on our journey over the next 15 years.”
Setting a course for the lottery’s future
The first project phase will begin in January 2026. Going forward, sales partners are also set to benefit from the new platform. Innovative enhancements such as new game concepts will be integrated into the system, with initial concepts already in planning.
Marc Lorek, Vice President, Lottery Development, adesso SE, says: “The platform will be at the cutting edge of technology, while also setting new standards in terms of customer loyalty, performance and scalability.” Andreas Luckmann, Vice President, Lottery Consulting & Sales, adesso SE, adds: “This marks a whole new beginning for GKL and a flagship project for us. It will see us establishing ourselves as a key strategic partner in the European lottery market.”
