Universal Sea is an independent non-profit initiative, coordinated by the Foundation for Entrepreneurship (Berlin, Germany), in partnership with the Center of Polish Sculpture (Oronsko, Poland) and Hybridart Management (Budapest, Hungary), in cooperation with EUCC-D (Rostock, Germany). The Universal Sea was initiated and is run by the Institute for Art and Innovation e.V.
