Agenda Session

Toward a Thriving Ocean Enterprise

Dec 04 2025

12:00 PM - 12:30 PM CST

UI Think Tank

The Ocean Enterprise Initiative aims to spearhead innovation, accelerate thought leadership, and drive economic development within the global ocean enterprise.  Real-time, scaled ocean data and marine intelligence are increasingly necessary for expanding global markets.  Even though oceans dominate our planet with greater than 70% coverage, data limitations are impeding the growth of a robust ocean economy.  Public-private partnerships and the private sector can revolutionize this area by boosting innovation, cutting costs, and creating new commercial uses.  This discussion will focus on actions moving toward a more vibrant, sustainable, and profitable ocean observation ecosystem that can be achieved by connecting investors, technology companies, insurers, and other key industries with ocean startups.  – panel discussion
