Hi everyone,
My name is Patrick Griffin. I am putting together a plan to build an ocean farm in France. I recently relocated to France from California. I wonder if anyone has any resources or experience in navigating the French or EU permitting process. Thank you!

@patrick_griffin - Hello! You can check out this licensing toolkit from Seaweed for Europe as a place to start.
Hello @patrick_griffin!
I've just discovered the greenwave model and am at the very beginning of my reflection on building such a farm. But I would most probably want to settle in France, as well. How is it going for you? Have you made progress since posting this last Summer? Where are you based, exactly?
I would love to get in touch and learn from your experience.
There aren't many active members of this community based in Europe, yet! Let's connect.
Cheers,
Luc

Hi Luc, I'm in Paris. Let's make it happen! Happy to connect. When are you free? Let's do a zoom call. Patrick
Hello @patrick_griffin!
I'm so deeply sorry for my total lack of reaction... The last months have been hectic -- it's basically the time it took me to leave my job and free up some time! I'm now determined to make this happen, currently doing the Greenwave classes and actively looking for opportunities to connect with people in France and Europe (as well as for work/internships for later this year to start gaining hands-on experience and check if that type of work is for me in practice!).
If you're still up for a Zoom call, please reach out! I'd be free tomorrow or Friday, or pretty much anytime next week (except Tuesday and Wednesday). Feel free to send me an invite: lc.aubry@gmail.com
Cheers,
Luc
