GMSO Named Semi-Finalist for Inaugural EarthX Ocean Innovation Prize

Greenwater Marine Sciences Offshore (GMSO) is proud to announce its selection as a semi-finalist for the first-ever Ocean Innovation Prize, debuting at the 10th Annual EarthX E-Capital Summit.

The E-Capital Summit is a premier global convening of investors, industry leaders, and innovators focused on “Sustainability Investing: Driving Global Re-engagement Through Pragmatism.” This year’s summit highlights market-based, scalable solutions that address critical environmental challenges. The inaugural Ocean Innovation Prize, sponsored by the Christo Foundation, specifically spotlights emerging companies dedicated to advancing the sustainable blue economy.

GMSO was selected for its scalable, asset-backed model that removes the access barrier to ocean research. By providing a fleet of professionally crewed, mission-ready research vessels, GMSO enables ocean science and exploration that would otherwise be left unfulfilled due to the global shortage of suitable maritime platforms.

“Ocean science isn’t limited by ideas; it’s limited by access,” said Miller. “Being recognized by EarthX and the Christo Foundation underscores the growing global need for practical, infrastructure-level solutions that enable scientific understanding of our ocean.”
