On this episode, Ollie Taylor and Alessandro Stagni join the podcast to discuss the MarineShift360 Impact Accelerator program. It’s a year-long initiative equipping marine organizations with lifecycle assessment expertise and access to an industry-wide sustainability network. Ollie is the Founder of Marine Futures and the program director of Marine Shift 360. Alessandro is the Chief Technology Officer at nlcomp (Northern Light Composites).
Three companies were selected for the 2026 MarineShift360 Impact Accelerator, covering the full vessel lifecycle from materials to propulsion to end-of-life. One of those companies is nlcomp, an Italian deep-tech startup developing recyclable thermoplastic composite materials designed to solve one of the biggest challenges in advanced materials: end-of-life waste.
In this episode, we’ll explore what it really takes to build a sustainable marine industry and where the biggest opportunities lie.
