OceanX Group CEO Selected Prestigious Rotary People of Action: Young Innovator
Vic Grosjean Recognized for Social-Tech Solutions to Clean Oceans
Melbourne Vic.—Today OceanX Group™ CEO, Vic Grosjean was selected by Rotary International as 1 of 6 People of Action: Young Innovator. Grosjean is being recognized for his efforts in developing innovative solutions to tackle problems facing the world’s oceans including using drones to clean plastic, environmental monitoring, and driving social innovations. Every year, 8.8 million tons of plastic waste gets into the oceans, putting marine species at risk of extinction. Grosjean, a 29-year-old engineer, launched OceanX Group™ to develop automated pollution monitoring and removal tools that use artificial intelligence and drones to remove plastics and other pollution from waterways and detect their source.
Grosjean, who has 12 years of experience in oceanography and mechatronics engineering, has persuaded clubs to support the effort, contribute financially, and volunteer for river clean-up events.
Grosjean will join 5 other Rotary members – all under the age of 35– in Nairobi, Kenya during Rotary Day at the United Nations. Each member was selected for their commitment to solving problems with measurable and lasting results, connecting local issues with global concerns.
