We started BlueSwell because we believe that bluetech ventures have substantial potential for impact and that encouraging this type of innovation requires a dedicated and focused support infrastructure. Through the program, we’ve focused on building the capacity of these inspirational founders to convert their big ocean-focused concepts into profitable and sustainable businesses by bridging a gap of funding and mentorship.

On Demo Day, you’ll meet five startups pitching their business ideas with a mission to make real impact on ocean Sustainability. You'll get to hear all about the progress they’ve made since September, talking to customers, refining their products, planning pilots – and of course, fundraising!
