PROJECT LEADER
Eve Bourdon
Eve coordinates MANTA INNOVATION's different projects by setting up the project management tools within the team and monitoring them. She also manages the development of the net collection system that will be used on the MANTA.
ENERGY PROJECT MANAGER
Laurent Buquet
Laurent is in charge of designing the MANTA's energy system and optimising it to reduce the ship's carbon footprint, in particular through the use of wind, hydro and solar energy, the valorisation of waste heat and intelligent energy management. He is also in charge of research into the MANTA's navigational and propulsion performance when using sail or engine (either engine alone or with sail assistance).
PROJECT MANAGER
Maxime Delaye
Maxime is working on solutions for recovering plastic waste: material recycling and conversion into energy, to be installed both on board the MANTA and on land.
DEVELOPMENT ENGINEER
Antoine Iche
Antoine provides technical field support for MANTA INNOVATION's various product developments. He also monitors their international deployment as part of his projects for The SeaCleaners.
PROJECT MANAGER
Baptiste Jagoury
In addition to his MANTA related projects, Baptiste is working on the development of low-tech solutions for collecting waste not only on the surface but also underwater, where the waste sinks and can no longer be seen.
OPERATIONAL MANAGER
Eric Le Plomb
Eric identifies and develops ways to test the feasibility, operability and efficiency of the MANTA's offshore collection systems (conveyor and net systems). He supports their development and leads trials of small collection boats at sea (such as the MOBULA 8 and 10).
EXTERNAL EXPERT
Thierry Pacini
Thierry is in charge of providing support for the development and implementation of the MOBULA collection boats as well as the waste-to-energy conversion solutions.
GENERAL MANAGER
Frédéric Silvert
Frédéric is responsible for the administrative management and technical coordination of MANTA INNOVATION's teams and projects, with a particular focus on naval architecture activities and the development of the MANTA's propulsion solutions.
EXTERNAL EXPERT
Jérôme Tard
Seconded from The SeaCleaners, Jérôme coordinates the selection and tendering process for the shipyards that will build the MANTA.
