Mr Alexis GROSSKOPF

CEO, OceanHub Africa

Alexis is the co-founder and CEO of OceanHub Africa, an ocean-impact accelerator focusing on strengthening the development and adoption of new sustainable ocean solutions in Africa. He holds a BEng in Mechanical Engineering and an MSc in Environmental Engineering from Imperial College London. Former sustainable development consultant and subsequently head of R&D for a blue-chip construction company in Europe, he moved to South Africa in 2017 where he first assisted in setting up a social impact incubator before launching OceanHub Africa.

His desire to build this startup incubator, specializing in technologies that have a positive impact on the ocean, was born out of his entrepreneurial and technological skills, his determination to tackle issues related to environmental protection and his identification of a real need to develop solutions that support blue growth.
