The VentureWell Ocean Enterprise Accelerator is here to help innovators from across America turn their vision into reality by supporting the development, commercialization, and adoption of new ocean data technologies and services for economic and societal benefit to the U.S. and our growing blue economy. Whether you’re a student, researcher, entrepreneur, industry professional, or innovator passionate about building ocean solutions, this transformative national suite of programs is designed to equip blue innovators with the tools, resources, and support needed to turn bold ideas into impactful solutions. If you are already exploring a technology venture with our E-Team pathway this could be a complementary next step.

The accelerator offers an unparalleled opportunity to gain funding, grow your expertise, and connect with a powerful network of industry leaders, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) researchers, and academic partners.

“The launch of the first cohort of the VentureWell Ocean Enterprise Accelerator marks a significant step forward for ocean innovation,” stated Zack Baize, Ocean Enterprise program manager at NOAA. “We are proud to be partnering with VentureWell to help support the technologies that will strengthen the U.S. ocean economy.”
