Oceans X Labs (Digital accelerator)
In July 2017, we will welcome the first cohort of the Oceans X Labs Accelerator, an enterprise development program tailored and dedicated to the success of innovators in the ocean conservation space. The accelerator programming will focus on customer development, business planning, technology transfer, and science and innovation in start-ups as well as capitalize on a peer-to-peer learning model and personalized mentoring from industry experts. The accelerator program will largely be convened digitally and take advantage of the Digital Makerspace resources, platform, and community. sponsors Conservation X labs WWF
