A partner-led consortium built to scale sustainable seaweed globally
Founded in 2024, TSC is shaped by three long-established leaders from the algae and agri ecosystem. Operating as aligned stakeholders, we combine biology, farming, science, and biotechnology to build an integrated seaweed value chain; from ocean cultivation to finished products.
Oceana Organic (Ireland, est. 2003)
Led by a globally recognised marine botanist, Oceana Organic brings over two decades of multi-species cultivation experience and European seaweed expertise.
Dr. Stefan Kraan contributes 20+ years of marine research leadership through global R&D programs and international seaweed initiatives.
TSC Purple Pvt. Ltd. (India, est. 2024)
TSC Purple leads India’s large-scale cultivation of Gracilaria and Kappaphycus, with over 15 years of experience in algae science and coastal livelihood development.
Hari Shankar has trained 500+ coastal farmers in sustainable seaweed cultivation across India.
Prasmo Agri (India, est. 2012)
Led by Prasanna Mohan, Prasmo Agri brings over 20 years of expertise in marine fertilisers and bio-stimulants. Prasmo Agri is part of the Skywin Group’s 35-year agricultural legacy in India.
Prasmo Agri has regenerated over 452,000 hectares of agricultural land through its seaweed-based bio-stimulants.
Driving impact through responsible cultivation, innovation, and community partnership
Through responsible cultivation, science-backed innovation, and deep community partnership, we’re creating a regenerative value chain that delivers real impact; from ocean farms to global markets.
Regenerate ecosystems through
sustainable farming and low impact
cultivation.
Champion circular solutions that
reduce environmental pressure and
unlock new bio opportunities.
Advance seaweed science to create
high-value products for agriculture,
nutrition, and materials.
Empower coastal communities with
fair livelihoods, training, and long-term
economic stability.
