Planterra Wins National Award for the Living Wall at the Detroit Zoo’s Butterfly Garden
WEST BLOOMFIELD TOWNSHIP, Mich., January 26, 2023 (Newswire.com) - Planterra, a national leader in interior landscaping, was recently awarded Platinum at the 2023 International Plantscape Awards in the living wall category for its renovation of the plant-covered wall at the Detroit Zoo's Butterfly Garden.
Planterra was contracted to retrofit an existing focal point inside the historic Butterfly Garden, part of the Detroit Zoo's Wildlife Interpretive Gallery, with a new living wall. The living wall, meant to be both an interactive experience for guests and a natural shelter for over twenty-five species of butterflies, was designed as a curved, 16-foot wall with more than two-thousand assorted plants.
"As a company based in the Detroit region, it is an honor to take home an award recognizing our hometown gem, the Detroit Zoo," said Shane Pliska, President of Planterra.
Home to hundreds of butterflies, the Detroit Zoological Society (DZS) tasked Planterra with specifying and sourcing plants that were both safe for the insects and could be maintained under the Butterfly Garden's strict climate controls.
"The living wall inside the Detroit Zoo's Wildlife Interpretive Gallery has been a massive hit for both our guests and the butterflies who call the habitat home," said Bonnie Van Dam, curator of birds for the Detroit Zoological Society. "All of us at the DZS offer Planterra a sincere 'thank you' and congratulations. The living wall is truly a work of art, and it wouldn't have been possible without the great collaboration between Planterra and our incredible operations staff here at the DZS."
Presented by I-Plants magazine, the 2023 International Plantscape Awards recognize interior landscape projects rated by a panel of peers in the horticulture industry. For more information on Planterra, please visit https://planterra.com.

InvestChile Publishes E-Book on New Fintech Law in Chile
SANTIAGO, Chile, January 26, 2023 (Newswire.com) - From this year, Chile has had a new law to regulate and promote the Fintech industry. And so that the information is readily and quickly available to foreign investors, InvestChile has published its new e-book "Fintech Law: Keys to the new regulations for the sector in Chile."
The guide has been prepared by the South American country's Foreign Investment Promotion Agency. It contains an overview of the industry and its main stakeholders, both in Chile and in the region, as well as the objectives, definitions and principles of the new law, and much more.
The new law aims to update the local financial regulations, considering the progress made, as well as new technological stakeholders, alternative transaction systems, intermediation and credit consultancies, and specification of the rules of open finance.
The expectation is that this will help the growth of the Fintech industry in Chile by providing greater clarity on the rules and regulations that govern the sector. It is also hoped that the country will consolidate its position as a leading hub for Fintech innovation in Latin America, and that it can attract more investors.
In 2021, there were more than 150 companies from the sector in Chile, with almost 50% of them expanding their operations internationally, mainly to Peru, Mexico, Colombia and Argentina.
