WILD BY NATURE — MEDIA INFORMATION | FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS ============================================================ Top 100 Nature Podcast | Media Pack 2026 THE SHOW -------- A conversation about what nature means to us. Wild By Nature is an unhurried, long-form podcast exploring the human relationship to the natural world — the places, encounters and inner ground that shape how the people leading long-term capital allocation think, decide and live. Through unhurried dialogue with leaders across finance, technology and science, it reveals nature as a guiding presence — and core infrastructure — through multiple aspects of our corporate, economic and human lives. Host: Dr Vian Sharif Format: Long-form interview podcast Release cadence: Every other week LAUNCH PERFORMANCE ------------------ Top 100 nature podcasts at launch, Apple Podcasts US | UK top 30.

Curious, not ideological — searching for depth. — Nature Advocates Researchers, educators and conservationists working at the intersection of nature, wellbeing and human potential. EDITORIAL POSITION ------------------ Three differentiators set it apart: I. Understanding your world Not a journalist asking about ESG — a founder who builds the data infrastructure representing $25T of institutional capital, and who flies leopard surveys at weekends. The conversation Wild By Nature brings to the fore aligns with client and prospect outreach. II. Long-form, slow tempo Forty-five to seventy-five minutes. The form invites the kind of depth a Davos panel cannot. III. Calibre of conversation Built to attract figures of substance who turn down most podcasts. Partners sit alongside voices that move markets, allocate capital and shape policy on the living world.
