In 2018, SOA launched the first ever Ocean Solutions Accelerator, a groundbreaking program to identify, accelerate, and scale the most promising ocean innovation startups in the world.
The success stories of 45 ecopreneurs who have undergone our Accelerator program serve as a living testament to the profound impact a dedicated support system for ocean and climate startups can have.
To date, SOA startup members have secured an astounding $308 million in funding, empowering them to employ over 600 individuals. These visionary founders work tirelessly towards healing, restoring, and sustaining the health of our ocean and planet.
We have come to realize that achieving our commitment of restoring the ocean’s health transcends the confines of a multi-week Accelerator program. Our mission demands an enduring dedication that spans a lifetime as we strive to foster systemic change on a global scale.
