BlueTech Week is all about the companies and the people driving the sustainable Blue Economy. It's the annual event where hundreds of senior international participants gather in San Diego to highlight collaboration and innovation. This year BTW2021 will once again be held virtually, utilizing technology to bring worldwide experts together.
BlueTech Week 2020 was held online to cater to our international audience without compromising the safety of our attendees through international travel and this year will be the same. We had a successful online BTW2020 and know that BTW2021 will be even better!
The UN 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development was adopted in 2015 with 17 global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). It is a plan of action for people, planet and prosperity. TMA BlueTech also embraces the idea of AquaOptimism™ - to think positively about the future of our water systems and provide forward thinking solutions to the current problems.
BlueTech Week attracts a growing audience from across the United States and globally for a series of intimate executive level events that bring together representatives of academia, industry, and policymakers ("the Triple Helix”).
This year’s specific areas of focus include Applied Ocean Solutions, Aquaculture/BioMarine, Maritime Robotics, Offshore Renewable Energy, Water/Wastewater and Smart-Ports and Shipping.
Consisting of several live sessions and meet ups over 5 days, #BlueTechWeek attracted 665 participants from 37 countries, and 306 companies and leading experts from academia, finance, government, and industry.
BlueTech companies and academic researchers have developed technologies to monitor and observe the earth's natural systems and are responsible for having developed our understanding the environmental challenges we face.
We believe that BlueTech will also provide the critical solutions to help address these problems and foster a sustainable Blue Economy.
BlueTech Week connects a sustainable Blue Economy globally year-after-year.
