African startups with a focus on protecting and restoring ocean health are invited to apply for OceanHub Africa, an impact accelerator located in Cape Town. This six-month acceleration program is scheduled to begin in April 2021.

About OceanHub Africa

Launched by co-founders Alexis Grosskopf and Stéphanie Canac, OceanHub Africa provides insight into the significance of supporting ocean-conscious and sustainable startups.

Only the most disruptive and impact-driven startups focused on creating an environmentally conscious and profitable ocean economy will be chosen for the prestigious accelerator.

Commenting on the importance of the accelerator, co-founders of OceanHub Africa Alexis and Stéphanie, said,

“We believe it is up to enterprises to make the necessary changes and to us to promote more ocean-conscious innovative enterprises: innovations led by science, technology, and entrepreneurship will provide the necessary leverage points to meet the SDGs [Sustainable Development Goals] with the right pace and scale.”
