Our Why?
- Entrepreneurship is hard - especially in traditionally siloed BlueTech.
- When you combine the harsh, expensive, and often dangerous working conditions in water (salt or fresh) with hardware, software, or a unique marriage of the two - the challenge is that much harder and requires greater collaboration.
- BlueTech, ClimateTech and Blue Economy have few female and BIPOC entrepreneurs - optimal innovation requires full participation - we are working hard to create that.
- At Blue Institute Labs we are mission-driven to support these climate solution startups with business development, technical support, funding opportunities, and an "open innovation" eco-system that is second to none from academia, industry, government, and other innovation hubs.
- We are mission-driven to break down silos, educate, collaborate and to facilitate the creation of innovative solutions for clean water, climate resiliency, and healthy & secure oceans.
- Our Team of "Silo Stormers" is dedicated to advancing inclusive and experiential engagement, to connect disparate innovators and entrepreneurs with teaming opportunities, funding, piloting, and to support innovation through collaboration.
- Our programming is currently through a hybrid virtual ecosystem, while we identify and develop an ocean access location to support the needs of our partners and members for collaborative & innovative ocean access testing, training, workforce development, student internships, and business and technology commercialization.
- Climate change impacts everyone - solutions require an "All Hands on Deck Approach." We welcome your participation at the individual, company or organizational level.
