About us

“Transparent & Collective to Protect Every Wave!”

Mission

At SaveOCEAN, Our mission is to foster open science and collaboration while actively developing and implementing solutions that combat climate change impacts on oceans, promote sustainable fisheries, mitigate oil and chemical spill damage, and eliminate marine plastic pollution, thereby contributing significantly to a healthy marine environment in line with UN SDG 14.

Strategic Objective

Saving the ocean starts with your action. But before starting you need to understanding it.

Saving the ocean is a big deal, and there are so many ways to get involved. Could you tell me what aspect of ocean conservation you’re most curious about right now? For example, are you wondering about:

  • What are the biggest threats to the ocean? (Like plastic pollution, oil spill, overfishing, climate change)
  • What are some simple things I can do in my daily life to help?
  • Have you ever witnessed ocean destruction and did not know how to stop it?
  • What are some organizations that are working on ocean conservation?
  • Are there any success stories in ocean conservation?
  • What if we all took action every time we saw a threat to the ocean? 
  • Or maybe something else entirely?

Whether you’re curious about the threats it faces, the actions you can take, or the victories already won, your journey to protect our blue planet begins here.

SaveOCEAN Founder Statement

As the Founder and Chief Ocean Officer, my journey has been deeply intertwined with the ocean for many years. My commitment to environmentalism stems from witnessing firsthand the increasing impact of various pollutants on our seas during my years working offshore. Being offshore provided a stark and unfiltered view of how our oceans are affected daily. Witnessing the escalating crisis firsthand ignited in me a powerful desire to move beyond mere observation and actively contribute to solutions.

The frustration of seeing the ocean I love being degraded over the years, often without effective monitoring or timely intervention, became a catalyst for SaveOCEAN innovation. This pivotal moment marked a turning point in my career, shifting my focus from simply working on the ocean to actively working to protect it.

The vision behind SaveOCEAN is : to address the urgent problem of ocean health through the development and deployment of cutting-edge technology, guided by a deep understanding of the marine environment. The company’s mission is rooted in a commitment to creating cleaner, healthier, and more resilient oceans for future generations.

The title of Chief Ocean Officer is not merely a symbolic gesture; it underscores my profound connection to and understanding of the ocean. It signifies a genuine passion for marine conservation and a dedicated advocate for the ocean’s well-being rather than solely a business executive.

I hope to ignite a collective sense of responsibility and empower others to become part of the solution, working together towards a healthier and more sustainable future for our oceans. For a deeper understanding of ocean trends and solutions read the book:
