Katapult Ocean Deep Blue Fund Welcomes MOL PLUS as its newest investor

Katapult Ocean welcomes MOL PLUS as the newest investor in our Deep Blue Fund, dedicated to investment across a range of verticals within the blue economy including Energy, Circular Resources, Food & Water, and Transportation.

Katapult Ocean is extremely excited to deepen it’s partnership with MOL PLUS- there is a strong alignment between the mission and vision of our organizations, and an active collaboration between industry and entrepreneurship is an important bridge to enable the industrial transition needed in the blue economy and more widely
Jonas Skattum Svegaarden, CEO, Katapult Ocean

MOL PLUS is an outstanding addition to our existing group of investors, and we welcome the group’s significant expertise within ocean shipping, energy, and impact particularly, as we continue to build and deploy more capital towards the ‘’new’ blue economy.

Even though the significance of the blue economy sector has been recognized, we have been working on it while feeling the difficulty of monetization and the challenge of establishing a business. We empathize with the passion and commitment of the Katapult Ocean members who face these challenges head-on, and we are really happy to work together. We will not stop our efforts to invest in and collaborate with the blue economy sector.
Takuya Sakamoto, CEO, MOL PLUS

With MOL PLUS’s investment, we are also excited about the potential to collaborate with their team on future co-investment opportunities as we did with our portfolio company Mocean Energy in 2023. MOL PLUS further strengthens and extends our reach and network in the oceans, and we are thrilled to begin working together!
