Over 600,000 metric tons of fishing gear is lost to the oceans every year, consuming up to 30% of the world's fishery stocks while causing fleets to lose billions of dollars in revenue and gear replacement costs. Blue Ocean Gear's Smart Buoys are designed with a range of sensors that allow fishers to monitor the status of their gear whether onshore or on the water, receiving alerts of anomalous conditions so they can respond immediately and operate more efficiently.

ARC Marine is an eco-engineering company pioneering nature-inclusive design & accelerating reef creation. ARC Marine has developed Reef Cubes, the patented building blocks for the ocean which provide sustainable habitat & nurseries, and spawning grounds whilst performing a useful subsea and/or coastal asset protection role. Reef Cubes are made from 95% recycled materials, do not contain any plastics, and are carbon neutral.

Sway is a material innovation startup combatting plastic pollution by scaling seaweed-based, home-compostable packaging. Their patented products match the vital performance attributes of conventional plastics and are designed to plug into existing infrastructure, enabling scale and massive impact. Unlike plastic, however, their materials are made from an abundant, regenerative resource and decompose into healthy soil after use. Sway Labs is based in the California Bay Area, and sources seaweed from a vetted network of seaweed farmers and processors around the globe.

Founded in 2014, FlyWire provides technology to track what happens on an individual fishing vessel, such as where the vessel sails, where it fishes, what is caught, and how much, seamlessly capturing critical fisheries data at sea. Integrated hardware is installed on-vessel to monitor catch, handling, efficiency, and vessel performance using video, GPS, and other sensors throughout the fishing trip. When the vessel returns, data are uploaded to the cloud, then AI processes big data sets for human review to finally generate reports for key stakeholders.

Current Foods (formerly Kuleana) is creating the next generation of seafood with plants and biotechnology. After going through Y-Combinator's S20 batch and raising $6.5M Pre-Series A, Current Foods has products across the country with an initial foodservice focus.

The start-up is currently raising Series A.

LOLIWARE is a leading seaweed-based, climate tech company. Our mission is to advance the planet towards a plastic-free, de-carbonized future with products that are Designed to Disappear™. We exist to combat the massive plastic waste problem with a natural and carbon-negative alternative: seaweed.

At microTERRA, we produce functional fiber from Lemna, a high-quality, clean-label texturized which represents a $30Bn industry. Our vision is to create ingredients that help protect our environment. Ingredients that instead of using water, are cleaning water. We partner with farms to scale up and grow lemna in an affordable way. Most importantly we are cleaning water, stopping downstream pollution, and reducing agricultural water footprint.
