The Atlantic Canada-based Ocean Supercluster, part of the federal government’s Innovation Supercluster Initiative, announced a project on Friday in an effort to support local startups.

The Ocean Supercluster is bringing together a collective of six partner organizations: Creative Destruction Lab, Genesis, Innovacorp, New Brunswick Innovation Foundation, PEI BioAlliance, and Springboard Atlantic.

Dubbed the Ocean Startup Project, the initiative aims to support the development of ocean technology startups and increase the industrial use of marine technologies.

Since the Ocean Supercluster, and the four other federally-funded groups, received funding in late 2018, each has been slowly rolling out and funding projects in their respective regions.
