Investor interest in the seafood, aquaculture and oceans sector has never been higher, but not every investor that wants to put money in the sector knows how.

SeaAhead, a Massachusetts-based group focusing on the emerging "bluetech" sector -- which encompasses ocean-related technology serving everything from aquaculture and offshore renewable energy to shipping -- is trying to find a simpler way to connect would-be investors and the companies needing funding.

SeaAhead co-founder and Executive Director Alissa Peterson told IntraFish the company, which launched in 2018, has worked to build up a network of routes for investors to step into the industry, including an incubator program with the New England Aquarium, a bluetech co-working hub and its Blue Angel Investment Group.
