Company Description
Mycela embeds paid entrepreneurial operators — seasoned generalists, top 3% of applicants — alongside science-heavy teams in climate and conservation. The operator shows up 15–30 hours a week for 8–24 weeks and builds the financial models, delivery systems, and operational infrastructure that turn proven science into something investable and scalable. At the end of an engagement, the operator can convert to a long-term hire.
This solves a people problem. The teams we work with don't lack ideas, evidence, or ambition. They lack the operational and entrepreneurial capacity to move from a working pilot to a scalable organization. Mycela fills that gap — and in filling it, helps teams pressure-test their own assumptions about what their model needs to look like at scale.
