Our Oceans Conference, 23rd-24th October 2019, Oslo

The 'Our Ocean' conference will bring together leaders from governments, businesses, civil society and research institutions to share their experience, identify solutions and commit to action for a clean, healthy and productive ocean. The organisers are looking to invite innovative businesses to pitch during the conference breaks.

Our future depends on a clean and healthy ocean, where protection and sustainable use go hand in hand. The ocean is under threat from the effects of climate change, pollution, loss of biodiversity and unsustainable use. Safeguarding the ocean for future generations is a shared responsibility and a matter of global urgency.

At Our Ocean 2019 we will highlight the importance of knowledge as the basis of our actions and policies to ensure protection of our ocean, responsible management of marine resources and sustainable future economic growth.

'Meet the Innovators' sessions are being organised during the main conference breaks. During these 'Meet the Innovators' sessions, representatives from individual companies will be allowed to pitch (around 5 minutes) their innovative solutions and sustainable business models to the participants of the conference.
