ClimaCrew is a digital marine platform using technology, engineering, and social sciences to scale sustainable fisheries and seaweed cultivation through community-driven engagement
We do this in 3 major steps
• First, we analyze satellite data to study the best spots to grow seaweed – this is done by our GIS and cloud team. A part of our spatial map also provides weather and marine advisory to marine fisherfolks to reduce their cost of fishing.
• Second, we train and work alongside a fishing community to cultivate seaweed in the chosen spots using our patented cultivation modules – this is done by our field team
• Third, we process the seaweed to extract value-added products with applications in the bio-fertilizer, food processing, and bio-plastic industries – this is done by a team of processing scientists and senior chemists
and finally, our marketing and sales team sells them to B2B vendors in the industry.

We are connecting the highly disintegrated marine supply chain in India through an integrated and aggregated marketplace where both the seller and buyer can interact and trade on seaweed products cultivated and processed by us or by our partners.
Our technology is globally applicable and we are looking to partner with global partner towards building a sustainable blue economy.

Project Description

Our goal is to build a legacy plant-based food business, reaching 1000 Crore INR in 10 years. We focus on lean manufacturing, in-house R&D, and inclusive employment and sustainability. Key strategies include product innovation, efficient operations, and strategic partnerships. Exit options for investors include strategic acquisition, IPO, or management buyback.

Excessive use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides lead to soil degradation, water contamination, and accumulation of endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) in plant tissues. We have generated data on the levels of chemicals in food crops, which can be utilized to make targeted solutions for farmers and policy decisions for the permissible limit of chemical fertilizers and pesticides in food.

We have developed a water soluble, easy to use, non-toxic, edible coat [Patent Filed] which can efficiently prevent moisture loss, microbial decomposition, over ripening and browning of fruits and vegetables without the need of refrigeration and efficiently enhance their shelf-life, post-harvest. The formulation can prevent spoilage up to 15 days as found in lab and pilot scale field trial studies.
