A bold initiative to fight plastic pollution in the oceans

The Seabin Project was born in 2015 when two Australians and avid water lovers - Andrew Turton and Pete Ceglinski - teamed up to solve a simple question: if there were rubbish bins on land, why not in the water? 
The Seabin is a floating rubbish bin that can collect plastic bottles, paper, oil, fuel, and detergent floating in the ocean. In 2017, Wärtsilä partnered with the dynamic duo and the Seabin Project as the first big technology company.
In this motivational podcast, Atte Palomäki, EVP for Communications, Branding & Marketing at Wärtsilä interviews Pete Ceglinski, CEO & Co-Founder of the Seabin Project. Pete shares about the journey of the Seabin and the challenges this agile start-up endured to get to where they are today. The key ingredients for success? Staying positive and having confidence in what you do. 
The Seabin Project is currently raising capital by allowing people to join the movement and buy shares in the company. To date, the business has raised over $1.3 million from 1,204 small investors. Listen to this podcast to find out more.
