WATCH THE PITCHES AND REVIEW THE DECKS: OIAP 2022 WRAP UP
The Six Startups From The Ocean Impact Accelerator Program Have Pitches to Watch and Decks to Review
We are pleased to announce the successful completion of the inaugural Ocean Impact Accelerator Program (OIAP) 2022, congratulations to the six brilliant startups for completing the program and achieving this milestone.
Over the past 7-months, the six startups from Australia, The Philippines, India, Finland, and the USA participated in a virtual program that culminated on 24 November with each startup travelling to Sydney, Australia to deliver a live 3-minute pitch to investors and gathered guests at OIO’s inaugural INNOVOCEAN.
Representatives from the OIAP 2022 cohort (minus Kristen from Saathi) meet with NSW Environment Minister James Griffin MP after their pitches at INNOVOCEAN.
We are excited to share the recordings of the 3-minute pitches with you and to invite you to request information about their current fundraising opportunities if this is of interest.
This YouTube playlist includes all of the pitches recorded at INNOVOCEAN in Sydney (please find links to each video below).

A friendly audience but it’s always a nervous experience pitching live on stage.
To remind you again of the six startups who completed the Ocean Impact Accelerator Program 2022, they are:
Mayani, Manila, Philippines: Mayani is an agri-fisheries platform building a sustainable pathway to market for the Philippines' 10 million smallholder farmers and fishers. The agri-fisheries marketplace directly sources agri-fisheries products from smallholder fishers and distributes them downstream to the market in a sustainable and digital value chain.
Nuvoe, Sydney, Australia: Nuvoe is building a range of products to deliver personalised, crafted mineral water from any source in the world, all while trying to eliminate single-use plastic bottles.
RiverRecycle, Helsinki, Finland: RiverRecycle aims to stop ocean plastic pollution by implementing river plastic recovery, land-based collection, mechanical recycling and chemical recycling to create value from otherwise ‘low-value’ plastic waste.
Saathi, Ahmedabad, India: Saathi manufactures 100% biodegradable and compostable sanitary pads from banana and bamboo fibres that not only addresses waste but also ethical sourcing and supply chains which can work to alleviate poverty.
Skyology, Oregon, USA: Skyology rebuilds coral reefs with captured air pollution. They use proprietary georeactor technology to convert mining waste and atmospheric CO2 into a mild and safe form of ocean alkalinity
Uuvipak, Brisbane, Australia: Uuvipak upcycles clean organic food waste into single-use plastic alternatives, such as takeaway containers, cups, and cutlery. Unlike most biodegradable products available on the market, these products decompose naturally within a few weeks and are even edible!
We hope you enjoy the pitches and reviewing the investment opportunities.
