Save the Farms Co., Ltd. (CEO Hwang In-su), an eco-friendly material development startup, announced on the 28th that it was finally selected for the '2025 Ocean-Generation Marine and Fisheries Accelerating Program' hosted by the Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries and the Korea Institute of Ocean Science and Technology Promotion and operated by Zephyrus Lab.
This program is an accelerating support project that supports technology development, commercialization, and investment linkage, with the goal of creating new industries and upgrading existing industries in the marine and fisheries sector. Selected companies will be provided with customized incubation and commercialization funds, as well as investment attraction opportunities, through a dedicated accelerator.
Save the Farms plans to focus on the advancement of marine waste resource technology through this program. In particular, it is focusing on the development of eco-friendly feed using oyster shells, and is promoting technology to convert marine by-products into sustainable resources rather than simple waste. Oyster shells are a representative marine waste, and have been a target of ongoing burden in terms of domestic marine environment management.
Save the Farms is exploring the possibility of converting the material into an eco-friendly product through component analysis and the feed raw material conversion process, and plans to strengthen its technology verification and commercialization capabilities through this accelerator program.
“We are focusing on developing technologies that can convert marine byproducts such as oyster shells into high value-added materials,” said Hwang In-soo, CEO of Save the Farms. “Through our participation in this program, we will expand collaboration with related industries and continue to discover business models that can contribute to the protection of the marine environment and resource circulation.”
