Experience
For 15 years, Liana Scobie has helped scale TerraCycle into an acclaimed global recycling and reuse company, contributing to 7x revenue growth, expansion in 18 countries, a team of 400, and 4 acquisitions. Earlier in her career, she worked with a startup investment fund focused on affordable housing in developing-country cities and a think-and-do tank advancing the transition to a regenerative economy.
Throughout life, she's learned to navigate complexity, take calculated risks, and turn ambitious ideas into operational reality. Shaped by the American Dream and influenced by New Economics, she's always questioned established assumptions about how value is created, measured, and distributed. Her approach to SCOBYSCOBIE combines unconventional thinking with the practical demands of building and running a business.
For the operation and survival of a larger system (whether capitalism or the Earth).
We work with organizations looking to bring ideas to market, navigate change, or pursue their next phase of growth.
The real opportunity is to build ventures that are commercially sound, solve real problems, and create value beyond their bottom line.
