Put your capital to work for people and planet

You want more than financial returns. You want your investment to restore ecosystems, strengthen communities, and prove that business can be ethical and regenerative.

Through JERICA’s Catalyst Projects, you can invest in regenerative tourism enterprises designed to deliver measurable social, environmental, and financial returns.

You don’t have to do this alone…

When you work with JERICA, you’ll be guided by Esteban Fernández Drovetta and his team. 

Esteban’s life has been shaped by resilience and curiosity. Born in Argentina and raised by a single mother who worked and lectured to support him and his sister, he learned early what commitment and opportunity really mean.

His career has spanned logistics, leadership, and system design. He studied Labour Relations at night while working full time at General Motors and Bank of America, moved into HR and union relationships, and later ran his own consulting firm, bridging IT systems with real-world business operations. In New Zealand, he helped design government systems to prevent modern slavery and worker exploitation, and coached school principals to strengthen leadership and deliver better outcomes for students.

What people say about Esteban is simple: he brings grounded pragmatism with a global outlook. He makes complexity actionable, connects with people at every level, and helps leaders design solutions that last. Above all, he believes in the dignity of work, the power of communities, and the responsibility we all share to create fairer systems.

His happy place? Getting lost in maps and history books, or on the dance floor — proving that curiosity and joy are as essential to leadership as courage and strategy.
