Celebrating Bold Leadership in Polar Exploration: Congratulations to Sophie, Finalist for the Bold Future Award! 🌟

We’re incredibly proud of Sophie Galvagnon, an accomplished TOOL Female Founder and now a finalist for the Bold Future Award by Veuve Clicquot! ✨

With over a decade of expertise in polar navigation and expeditions, Sophie’s remarkable achievements include being the youngest captain decorated with the French Maritime Merit and the first French woman officer on icebreakers. As an ice pilot, captain, and founder of a polar expedition shipping company, her experience extends from leading Arctic ventures to authoring an ice navigation manual. Passionate about innovation, she’s observed over 550 polar bears, mapped unexplored areas, and continues to push the boundaries of sustainable polar exploration with Selar.

Her newest venture, Selar, is the world’s first sustainable polar shipping company, pioneering eco-friendly Arctic adventures. Driven by wind and solar-powered sails, Selar embodies the spirit of early explorers while paving the way for a greener future in polar expeditions.

Congratulations, Sophie! 🧜‍♀️🌍🚀
