This project teaches local youth in Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea to be guardians of their ecosystem. In July 2020, with the help of 25 youth volunteers, they deployed 21 artificial reef units off the coast of Fisherman Island, Port Moresby. These volunteers will continue to monitor the growth, species abundance, diversity, and overall biomass on each reef. All survey methods will involve the collection of both still photos and video for post-field analysis and use for informational, outreach, and promotional materials.

Blue Ocean Gear is changing the commercial fishing industry with intelligent, connected Smart Buoys to provide real-time gear tracking for commercial fishing fleets out on the ocean. Without this technology, over 600,000 metric tons of fishing gear is lost to the oceans every year, consuming up to 30% of the world's fishery stocks while causing fleets to lose billions of dollars in revenue and gear replacement costs. Blue Ocean Gear's Smart Buoys are designed with a range of sensors that allow fishers to monitor the status of their gear whether onshore or on the water, receiving alerts of anomalous conditions so they can respond immediately and operate more efficiently. The buoys are also a valuable source of data on ocean conditions, providing insights that benefit ocean industry operations.
