Ozeaon: Connecting Knowledge, Innovation & Capital for Our Ocean
Co Founding Team Ozeaon at Ozeaon
Tallinn, Estonia
About
Ozeaon is a regenerative innovation and open science platform connecting ocean, climate, and nature-positive initiatives with knowledge, partnerships, and funding opportunities. Endorsed by the UN Ocean Decade under Action 10.7 of the Early Career Ocean Professionals (ECOP) Programme, Ozeaon connects global ocean collaboration and investment ecosystems.
Through one digital ecosystem, Ozeaon brings together open science, education, research, project development, stakeholder collaboration, and crowdfunding. It enables researchers, innovators, organisations, communities, and project developers to showcase projects, share knowledge, increase visibility, build partnerships, and explore funding opportunities.
Complementing this platform is the Ozeaon Climate Intelligence System (OCIS), a climate technology initiative being developed to strengthen environmental intelligence, project integrity assessment, and digital Measurement, Reporting and Verification (dMRV).
OCIS is designed to integrate project information, environmental and geospatial data, Earth observation, and climate intelligence to assess project integrity, understand environmental risks, structure evidence, and support transparent impact reporting.
Together, Ozeaon and OCIS connect projects with collaboration opportunities while advancing data-driven assessment, environmental accountability, and pathways to funding.
