Partnering with the Cocoa Research Center (CRC) in Trinidad and Tobago, Compass seeks to work on the IDB-LAB funded cocoa, carbon, community project, aimed at attracting investment to support socially and environmentally sustainable cocoa-based business. Compass will collaborate with the CRC to analyze the impact investment sector in Trinidad and Tobago. 

Through investor support with sustainable farming techniques and capital given to local economies, the project hopes to better both the standard of living and environmental impact of farmers. The project will utilize and build upon previous research and deliverable presentations curated for the CRC in the previous two semesters. In the end, Compass hopes to deliver an investment map illustrating the cocoa investment ecosystem, completed pre-feasibility studies for promising investment opportunities, and compose a Mock Impact Investment Pitch proposal for cocoa estate investments.
