Aqua Capital is excited to announce its official launch, aiming to fill a major funding gap for early-stage aquaculture startups by connecting innovative entrepreneurs with experienced investors passionate about transforming the blue economy.
With wild fish stocks under increasing pressure and the aquaculture sector projected to provide over 60% of fish for human consumption by 2030, the need for sustainable, efficient aquaculture solutions has never been more critical. Despite this, early-stage funding for startups in the sphere has remained scarce, hindering the development of potentially game-changing technologies.
Aqua Capital seeks to address this challenge by creating a centralised hub for angel investors looking to invest in pre-seed and seed-stage aquaculture innovations. The network will focus on key areas including sustainable feed solutions, water quality management, disease prevention, breeding and genetics, innovative infrastructure and AI applications in aquaculture.
Neil Hunter, Advisor at Aqua Capital, commented: "The aquaculture industry is at a critical juncture. While the potential for growth and innovation is immense, many brilliant ideas struggle to secure early-stage funding. Aqua Capital bridges this gap, combining financial investment with hands-on mentorship to nurture the next generation of aquaculture leaders."
The network will offer free support to promising startups, helping them refine their business models, enhance their pitch decks and prepare for investor questions. This hands-on approach ensures that startups are fully prepared to showcase their value and potential when meeting investors.
Over the coming months, Aqua Capital plans to continue to grow its membership and collaborate with key incubators, hubs, and accelerators across the region to identify promising startups. The group is particularly interested in ventures that address critical challenges in the aquaculture industry while promoting sustainability and scalability.
Entrepreneurs are invited to submit their non-confidential investor decks through the Aqua Capital website. Aqua Capital aims to review all submissions and respond within a few days, emphasising their commitment to rapid, efficient engagement with potential investees.
