This article highlights the value biodiversity represents for a large number of industries and service providers who are essential contributors to the engine of economic growth. It also pinpoints the risks and opportunities a decline in biodiversity and a breakdown in the supply of ecological services can generate. Finally, within each concerned industry the major threats and strategic priorities to put in place to meet these challenges are identified - strategies which, in particular for those companies that implement them first, will contribute to their value added and growth.
