## Elevator Pitch
Laboratorio Azul develops marine bioactive ingredients from cultivated microalgae for sustainable dermocosmetics. We create lab-grown photoprotective compounds as safer alternatives for human health and marine ecosystems.

## Climate Problem
Conventional UV filters can damage marine ecosystems and contribute to coral bleaching. We develop sustainable marine-derived alternatives that protect both people and ocean biodiversity.

## Solution
We cultivate marine microalgae to produce natural photoprotective compounds for dermocosmetic applications, reducing dependence on harmful synthetic UV filters.

## Revenue Model
B2B sales of marine bioactive ingredients to dermocosmetic laboratories and skincare companies such as natura, belcorp, nivea y bierdersorf

## Target Market
Dermocosmetic laboratories, skincare brands, and clean beauty companies seeking sustainable and marine-safe UV protection ingredients.

## Social Impact
People Living in Extreme Poverty, Women

## Demand Evidence
Growing regulations on harmful UV filters and increasing demand for clean beauty products are driving interest in sustainable photoprotective ingredients.

## Competitors
Traditional UV filter manufacturers and biotech companies developing natural cosmetic ingredients, especially within the clean beauty sector.

## Founder Expertise
Our multidisciplinary team combines marine biology, medical perspective, R&D, and business strategy focused on marine biotechnology and sustainable innovation.

## External Support
Participation in Hult Prize Perú, university mentoring, startup competitions, and early-stage validation support from academic networks.
