Why every startup founder needs a mentor
One of the things that we most commonly associate with the world of startups is youth. When we think of startup founders, the classic image that comes to mind is of a twenty-something-year-old in Silicon Valley, dropping out of university to start the next big tech firm. Think Mark Zuckerberg and Steve Jobs, for example, who were 19 and 21 respectively when they started Facebook and Apple.

Why the sea is an underappreciated test bed for innovation
Water covers some 71% of the surface of our planet, and more than 80% of it remains unexplored. We know so little about what lies on the sea bed and what our oceans actually contain. We’ve sent rovers to neighbouring planets and probes deep into space, and those missions have yielded not only fascinating scientific discoveries, but innovation and technology that has since been applied to more every day, commercial use cases. Our seas will spawn similar benefits.
