Bibliomotion Releases 30gurus Course: 'The Nature of Investing' with Katherine Collins

Boston, MA

Bibliomotion is thrilled to announce the launch of their newest 30gurus course: 'The Nature of Investing' with Katherine Collins. This course launches Monday, July 28.

The Nature of Investing reunites investing with the real world through natural principles, transforming the investment process from the roots up. Drawing on Collins's twenty years of professional investment experience, this course connects real-world finance with the deeply rooted, scientifically valid framework of biomimicry - a different framework than the mechanized one frequently employed throughout the financial industry. The result is an investment approach that goes "beyond sustainability" to form a naturally modeled investment system that is inherently resilient and regenerative.

In this course, participants will discover the connection between nature and investing. Collins provides tools that will help you make more thoughtful and complete investing decisions with their time, energy, and money.
