ocean paint microplastic pollution "on the agenda" in the hague this week!

Pinovo had an opportunity to talk to the super well informed and connected Ocean audience at the OCEANOVATION Festival, about how big the problem of Paint Microplastic Leakage into the Ocean is (Paint is the largest source of the Leakage, according to The Pew Charitable Trusts and EA - Environmental Action!), and how Pinovo's technology tackles this problem!

Congratulations to Rick Wall and his great team including Elodie Delagneau, Emma Robinson, and Charlotte Durup de Baleine for their excellent organisation and execution of the inaugural OCEANOVATION Festival in The Hague.  

It was very motivating and uplifting to hear the different ways in which the other Ocean Innovators at the Festival are working to protect Ocean Health and Biodiversity, and how important investors and leaders in the Ocean space, such as Pierre Erwes, Chris Gorell Barnes, Ted Janulis, Adam de Sola Pool, Steffen Knodt and Maren Hjorth Bauer are driving finance to Ocean solutions and innovations.

Thanks to Diederik Hoogendoorn of Perspect Industrial Products, Pinovo's distributor in the Benelux region, for joining us at the Festival, and for demonstrating our tools and talking about our (happy!) customer case studies.  

It was also great to see Pinovo's fellow UpLink - World Economic Forum Top Innovators who are active in the Ocean space - Caroline Hooft-SlootwegDavid Lunsford Brian Tsuyoshi Takeda Anssi Mikola, Plastic Fischer GmbH, and Samantha Rengers - Deane supporting one another at the Festival. UpLink - World Economic Forum rocks 😎 !
