PELAGOSPHERA
To know the sea is to know ourselves, to preserve it is to safeguard the future of us all
The origin of our name
Pelagosphera (πέλαγοςσφαῖρα, literally “sea ball”) is the planktonic larval stage of a group of benthic marine invertebrates known as sipunculids, comprising around 350 species distributed throughout the seas and oceans of the planet.
Pelagosphera is the name that describes our world, our passion and our work. Everything related to the sea fascinates, surprises and inspires us every day along a constant path of growth and knowledge, both individual and collective.
Today, Pelagosphera is each one of us.
