USF and six other organizations have received a grant from NOAA to tackle critical challenges impacting our ocean, coastal communities, and economy through an innovative accelerator program. The program is designed to promote the commercialization of blue-tech solutions, drive advancements in ocean resilience, reduce negative environmental impacts, and stimulate economic growth.
Steve Murawski will spearhead USF’s involvement, providing access to labs and research vessels and offering training in various technologies. Murawski will help entrepreneurs, scientists, and marine-resource managers gain real-world experience in the blue economy. The funds will be used to establish a network of business accelerators and commercialization programs, fostering hundreds of startups focused on solving challenges related to the environment.
