With extensive experience across the U.S. and the U.K., we invest in businesses that address some of the world’s most pressing challenges.

Our mission is clear: to drive economic opportunity and sustainability through innovative projects like OZFund, Inc. and Ocean Thermal Energy Corporation (OTEC)—ventures designed to create meaningful impact for millions of people.

Our Current Projects

 
OZFund, Inc: Revitalizing Communities
 
We are a federally Qualified Opportunity Zone Fund (QOF). OZFund is leading the way in creating affordable workforce housing and essential retail and professional spaces in economically distressed areas. The heart of our mission is to spur economic growth, create jobs, and 
enhance the quality of life.
 
Our flagship project—a 52-apartment complex with an integrated convenience and grocery store in Lancaster, PA—is just the beginning. By focusing on community needs, 
we aim to bring opportunity, stability, and growth to areas that need it most.
Our second project, targeted for Carlisle, PA, is underway with 4.4 acres of development land under contract. Our Architects, Engineers, and Professional Advisors are busy bringing all of the pieces together to create over 100 affordable workforce apartments
 
Ocean Thermal Energy Corporation (OTE): Pioneering Renewable Energy
 
At OTE, we are building the future of sustainable living. Our groundbreaking Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) technology harnesses the natural temperature gradient of the ocean to generate fossil-fuel-free electricity and fresh water.
 
Designed to support entire communities, OTEC’s first commercial-scale system will provide 24/7/365 renewable energy and fresh water, setting a new global standard for environmentally responsible development.
 
OCEES International, Inc.: Innovating for a Sustainable Future
 
With over twenty years of expertise, OCEES International is advancing renewable energy solutions to combat climate challenges. Our team, rooted in cutting-edge research at the Natural Energy Lab of Hawaii Authority (NELHA), has proven OTEC’s financial and environmental viability. With a proven track record in securing grants and government incentives from the U.S. Department of Defense (DOD), OCEES continues to deliver scalable, base-load renewable energy solutions.
