Scape leverages the ocean alkalinity equation to sequester CO2 from industrial sources by using abundant minerals to transform seawater into permanent storage facilities. The company has built a proprietary reactor where seawater is injected, the CO2 and the minerals are mixed and then released in the ocean. The amount of CO2 that can be stored in that way is in the gigatons per year without affecting ocean pH. Further the process yields large amount of Nickel and Chromium used in batteries.

Grolink capitalizes on inefficiencies of the Nigerian aquaculture supply chain caused by poor infrastructure and a fragmented, smallholder dominated farming landscape who operate on an isolated basis and rely on middle-men to generate market access for their products.

Oo-Nee Sea Urchin Ranch is a company focused on transforming ecologically destructive sea urchins into a high-value culinary delicacy. Their primary mission is to address the problem of overpopulated sea urchin barrens, which are areas where sea urchins have overgrazed kelp forests, leading to the degradation of these vital marine ecosystems. By reducing sea urchin populations in overgrazed areas, Oo-Nee helps restore kelp forests, which in turn supports marine biodiversity and enhances carbon sequestration.

HEDROS BIO has created a development platform for the creation of phages tailored towards specific markets. Their PhageChooser software allows for the creation of phage cocktails with up to 10 distinct phage entities. The platform allows for phage optimisation, significantly reducing the risk of resistance and allows for the stacking of desired antimicrobial targets which has the potential of producing multi-target solutions.

Knip ferments an all-natural microbial organism with high crude protein content and gut health benefits for use as a fish feed ingredient. JUV™ is Knip’s current flagship product, a natural feed additive, fermented from a strain of Methylobacterium extorquens, a tree leaf microorganism using methanol as carbon source. It targets stressful periods in the fish or shrimp culture cycle, particularly in the nursery stages where the animals are most sensitive and handled a lot.

Living Seas Aquafeeds is a specialty manufacturer of feeds for crustacean aquaculture including shrimp, lobster, and crabs. The signature product is a shrimp supplement which is in the form of a ready-to-feed pellet containing a mixture of seaweeds, mangrove leaves, and volcanic minerals. It is made through a proprietary fermentation process that releases powerful bioactive molecules that improve shrimp health, growth, and productivity.

Halophilic Marine Agriculture, cultivates salt tolerant vegetables and seaweed in a marine hydroponic system. This system is a solution to salinity intrusion and loss of fertile land and can be used as a complimentary and additive technology to existing shrimp and seaweed farms.

Eucheumatoids primary market is carrageenan, an additive used in food, cosmetic, pharmaceutical and household products.

Certified Quality Foods is an objective quality platform for the perishable food supply chain using bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA). The current subjective standard is sensory (organoleptic) evaluation which leads to large product loss at each node in the supply chain. CQ Foods offer data analytics as a service through a systems approach; a hand held device takes a reading which provides a quality metric, with additional data points (days since harvest, heat abuse, etc) and the data is aggregated and provided as input to quality control decision making.
