The Incubation Network is an initiative by SecondMuse and The Circulate Initiative that coordinates and accelerates efforts to reduce ocean plastic pollution and increase circularity. We are working to prevent the flow of plastic waste into the world’s oceans by developing, promoting, and investing in innovative technologies, business models and entrepreneurs, building a thriving circular economy in South and Southeast Asia.

As the Programs Director for The Incubation Network, I oversee the Ventures, Networks and Market Systems innovation teams. We bring together incubators and accelerators, entrepreneurs and innovators, investors, NGOs, and government leaders from across South and Southeast Asia to develop and scale impactful solutions.
