Not every invention survives first contact with the ocean. That’s where we come in.

This programme supports:

• University entrepreneurship centres
   
• Student engineering teams
   
• Startups building ocean or environmental technologies
   
• Research groups with hardware that needs real-world stress testing
   
• Tech transfer offices seeking field validation
   
• NGOs testing rapid-response tools
   

What we offer:

• At-sea deployment & testing of new hardware
   
• Failure analysis (your engineers’ favourite data)
   
• Environmental stress testing in Arctic, tropical, estuarine, deepwater, and high-energy zones
   
• High-quality visual documentation for grant proposals, investors, publications, and startup decks
   
• Custom power, mounting, and integration support
   

Ideal for:
Robotics, drones, sensors, renewable energy devices, monitoring buoys, water-quality tech, anti-pollution devices, Indigenous-led technologies, and anything that benefits from being exposed to wind, waves, current, chlorophyll, mud, and reality.

This is the catch-all category nobody else thinks to advertise, and you absolutely should.

We provide:

• Sensor deployment & retrieval
   
• Buoy placement
   
• Drifter, glider & AUV launch/recovery
   
• Camera rig installations
   
• Rapid-response coastal assessment
   
• Biological sample transport (chain-of-custody compliant)
   
• Invasive species surveillance
   
• Field servicing of existing equipment
   
• Inspection missions for marine protected areas
   
• Support for archaeological, geological, and habitat restoration projects
   

Think of this as:
“If you don’t have a ship, or you don’t want to waste funding chartering a massive diesel monster, we’re your field team.”
