Financing the Transition to a Sustainable Blue Economy

The ocean is a vital tool in the fight against climate change and a cornerstone of the global economy, supporting critical sectors such as shipping, fishing, aquaculture, tourism and energy. However, climate change, nature loss and pollution are rapidly degrading ocean health, threatening the long-term prosperity of the industries, businesses and communities that depend on it.

In our opening panel, we will explore the role of businesses, investors and governments in scaling and redirecting investments towards pathways that support the transition to a sustainable blue economy – rebuilding ocean prosperity and restoring biodiversity.
