CEO of Blue Planet Ecosystems, where we develop vertically integrated, solar-powered, aquaculture systems for sustainable fish production.

My organisation

Blue Planet Ecosystems develops vertically integrated, solar-powered, aquaculture systems for sustainable fish production. We enable growers to produce premium seafood on any piece of land with innovations called LARA and Vortex. These modular, user-friendly plug-and-play systems integrate advanced aquaculture technologies, including recirculating systems, feed production, control software, renewable energy, and animal monitoring. Together, these features significantly simplify fish farming. In addition to hardware, we provide comprehensive Software as a Service and Biology as a Service, offering an all-inclusive, scalable solution for localized seafood production.

About me

I am an economist and engineer by training and in 2019 - after having worked for in the corporate world - started Blue Planet Ecosystems in San Francisco.

Instead of using Photovoltaics to turn sunlight into electricity - we us microscopic plankton convert sunlight into food. By doing this we decouple the production of marine protein from the ocean - one of our most vularanble and important ecosystems.
