Our Vision:
To Improve humanity by transforming our ability to live and work under the sea.

Our Name:
Our name ARGONETA is based on the scientific name of the diving bell spider "argyroneta aquatica." It is an air-breathing spider that lives underwater. It uses special silk to create webbed bubbles between aquatic plants and fills the "diving bell" with air for breathing.
