OCTAVE Capital, Katapult Ocean launch $96.15m ocean fund

The fund is designed to accelerate solutions.

OCTAVE Capital and Katapult Ocean have launched the Asia Ocean Fund, a $96.15m (US$75m) impact fund, with the signing of a memorandum of understanding at IMPACT WEEK 2025.

The fund is designed to accelerate solutions, fill critical gaps in early-stage funding across, and provide strong backing to the ecosystem.

Together, the two will co-manage the fund to advance maritime decarbonisation, ocean renewable energy, green shipping infrastructure, ocean biodiversity and restoration solutions, circular resources, and sustainable aquaculture and marine biotechnology.

Targeting over 20 investments over the next five years, the first accelerator is set to launch in the first half of 2026.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
