Disrupt the Seaweed Economy
By Unlocking its Values
From seaweed to sustainability
Our planet is facing unprecedented challenges – from population growth to industrial pollution – placing immense strain on Earth and our oceans.
To combat this, we must revolutionize our economy and embrace eco-friendly alternatives.
GOA Ventures collaborates with the ocean to make a green impact. Our cutting-edge technology transforms fresh seaweed into multiple valuable products, contributing to the protein and energy transitions.
Harnessing the potential of seaweed
Seaweeds, while currently underexploited, harbour immense potential. Seaweeds absorb carbon dioxide and excess nutrients from the ocean, combating climate change.
With no need for land, freshwater, pesticides or fertilizers, seaweeds have an extremely low carbon footprint.
Cultivating seaweed can benefit coastal communities by creating an alternative to declining traditional marine industries.
Revolutionizing seaweed processing
Current processing technologies are energy intensive, destructive and use only a fraction of seaweeds’ valuable components. GOA Ventures aims to change that.
Through our mild and green processing, we can produce multiple products from each kg of seaweed:
- Protein: a sustainable food source
- Biopolymers: natural ingredients for cosmetics
- Biogas: clean energy from seaweed
We sell turnkey facilities for cascaded fresh seaweed biorefinery, revolutionizing the seaweed industry.
Why partner with us?
We are committed to making a positive impact on the global economy and the health of our planet. However, we cannot do it alone. We invite visionary partners to join us in transforming the seaweed industry. Here’s what we offer:
- Innovative technology: Our cascaded biorefinery maximizes the value of seaweed
- Sustainable impact: Contribute to reducing carbon footprints and supporting coastal communities
- Growth potential: Tap into the growing global market for sustainable food, materials and energy.
Are you ready to join the seaweed revolution?
