MarineShift360 has begun accepting applications for its 2026 Impact Accelerator, offering maritime companies access to a ten-month programme focused on lifecycle analysis and environmental performance improvements.
Led by Marine Futures with support from 11th Hour Racing, the initiative provides technical consultancy, supply-chain guidance and fully funded access to lifecycle assessment tools for organisations developing low-impact technologies or aiming to reduce the footprint of existing operations.
The announcement follows publication of initial programme results involving the RNLI and BAR Technologies, where lifecycle data was used to support changes in vessel design and manufacturing decisions.
MarineShift360 is targeting applicants developing clean propulsion systems, sustainable materials, and other decarbonisation technologies suited to maritime use. Applications close on 31 December, with successful candidates to be confirmed in January.
