From port logistics to clean energy, from aquatic sports to cutting-edge technology, every aspect is guided by one crucial goal: sustainability.

71% of the planet
is occupied by marine ecosystems, and exploiting them responsibly is key to driving sustainable development.

4,5 million
people are employed in the Blue Economy sectors within the European Union (EU).

400.000 M€

7% of global GDP
The United Nations Conference on Trade and Development estimates that globally, the seas and oceans represent a significant source of wealth, accounting for between 3.5% and 7%.

After over 3.5 billion years
since the dawn of life on Earth, our oceans continue to sustain us. They not only shape global climate patterns and regulate heat transport across the planet but also serve as the source of approximately half of the oxygen we breathe. Additionally, oceans hold significant cultural and identity value for countless inhabitants of our planet. The ocean is our lifeblood, our provider, and our teacher.
