Rethinking the Ocean: The Blue Economy at a Turning Point

Focus:  The blue economy as one integrated system of four verticals (infrastructure and assets; trade and freight; mobility and tourism; energy and data), the five disruptions reshaping it (AI and automation; execution bottlenecks; scarcity of human capital; the fuel transition; geopolitics and resilience), the priorities of each vertical, and the two enablers that unlock them, investment and coordination, with the Mediterranean as the lens.

On stage:  A session led by a global management consultancy with guests from institutions and geopolitics, energy and sustainability, and economics: a former navy chief of staff, a former shipyard CEO and state secretary, a former submarine-cable strategy chief, the head of a freight-emissions standards body, a former central bank governor, and a former energy-trading executive.

For:  Executives and strategy, finance, and investment leads across shipping, ports, logistics, shipbuilding, energy, and tourism; investors; policymakers and institutions.
