The Ocean Hackathon^® Ambassadors

Winning a local edition and having the opportunity to come to Brest to pitch their project in front of an international jury is in itself a great victory for the teams taking part in the Ocean Hackathon® Grand Final. But standing on the podium and winning one of the 3 prizes is of course an undeniable boost for the projects!

The Ambassadors enable us to reward the creativity and investment of the teams in developing innovative projects. Often also members of the international jury, their expertise enables us to select projects with real potential, which the prizes will make it possible to support financially.

The 2023 Amabassadeurs are: Cedre, Cerema, the French Maritime Cluster, Ifremer, Mercator Ocean International on behalf of Copernicus Marine Services, Météo-France, Océanopolis, the French Secretary of State for the Sea and Shom.
