The Continuum, a coordinated ocean-based climate resilience network of accelerators, breaks down barriers that keep startups from getting to market while making support for resilience data solutions more scalable, efficient, and interconnected.

Bringing together expertise and resources of two Phase 1 teams, Upwell Collaborative Accelerator (Award # NA24NOSX012C0011-T1-01) and Catching the Blue Wave (Award # NA24NOSX012C0013-T1-01), the Continuum offers robust acceleration and pilot project support programs, an intentionally built national support ecosystem for ocean and climate resilience startups, and a diverse range of resources including access to critical networks of mentors, investors and industry partners.

Our complementary array of programs and opportunities provide a true continuum of support for Bluetech entrepreneurs; maximizing access to critical connections, resources, and guidance for advancing data-driven blue economy solutions.

We offer the flexibility to engage with startups at any place in their entrepreneurial journey, while providing focused individualized support.

To facilitate collaboration between members as well as other entrepreneur support organizations, we created an integrated interregional model to help innovators go national and global across a spectrum of resilience and blue economy arenas based on value chain frameworks for each theme area.
