Sustainable Ocean Alliance


Sustainable Ocean Alliance (SOA) is a global non-profit organization that identifies, accelerates, and scales innovative solutions to restore the health of the ocean in our lifetime. SOA has cultivated the world’s largest network of next-gen leaders, entrepreneurs, advocates, mentors, and partners—all working to create solutions for the largest challenges facing our ocean. To date, we have accelerated 56 for-profit ocean start-ups and funded 320 grassroots solutions, in addition to having a youth presence in 168 countries. By supporting young ocean leaders, nurturing ocean-focused startups, advocating for stronger policies, and driving collaborative action, SOA is making a significant impact towards a sustainable and thriving ocean ecosystem.
