Description
Developing a floating modular multi-use platform system for use in deep waters, with an initial geographic focus on the Mediterranean, Tropical and Sub-Tropical regions. Thanks to its different modules, the floating platform system will be able to integrate a wide range of possible sectors : ocean renewable energy and food (aquaculture) resources will be exploited,the platform will serve as a hub for maritime transport and innovations in the leisure sector, and will also fulfil functions for oceanic observation activities.
