We are excited to announce that Antares Ventures co-led a CA$ 2.8 million investment round in Open Ocean Robotics (OOR), a Canadian maritime robotics and AI company transforming ocean monitoring. Traditionally, monitoring coastlines and open waters requires fixed assets on shore, satellites, crewed ships, or aircraft, which are expensive, labor-intensive, and polluting. OOR provides safe, affordable, sustainable, and scalable ocean monitoring solutions that are solar-powered. OOR's uncrewed surface vehicles (USV) can operate at sea for several months, collecting data with a suite of sensors without producing GHG emissions, noise pollution, or risking oil spills. We look forward to working with Julie Angus and our co-investors Spring Impact Capital , Katapult Ocean , Alacrity Canada and DTN Ventures LLC Antares Ventures ' investment thesis centered around the huge opportunity for OOR to support maritime monitoring in Southeast Asia, a region with close to 30,000 islands, a massive 173,000 km coastline, and 9 million square km sea surface, representing 30% of global maritime trade. At the same time, Southeast Asia has a fragile marine ecosystem. For example, the region is a core part of the Coral Triangle, which represents 75% of all coral species and 40% of all reef fish species worldwide. Antares Ventures will support Open Ocean Robotics to expand across Southeast Asia, using Singapore is a basis. OOR's participation in the PIER71™ accelerator organized by Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore (MPA) has been a great start for enhancing its connectivity with the region.

#Hydrogen is a key pillar in the transition to a net-zero world, given its ability to decarbonize 'hard-to-abate' industries like steel, cement, fertiliser, marine transport and applications in many other sectors. One of the main barriers to scaling its impact has been the challenges of storing and transporting hydrogen, particularly in a future world where production will be decentralized. As part of our comprehensive research, we were excited to discover the efficient, scaleable, and innovative #LOHC solutions from Ayrton Energy and glad to have the opportunity to participate in its pre-A funding round, led by Clean Energy Ventures and BDC Capital. Ayrton Energy fits perfectly in our strategy of identifying promising deeptech ventures that address a clear gap in the energy transition of Asia's growth market. We look forward to working with Natasha Kostenuk, P.Eng Brandy Kinkead, PhD and the rest of the team as well as the Board. Antares Ventures will particularly focus on supporting Ayrton Energy in their growth expansion into Asian markets.
