Sofar Ocean is excited to invite you to Earth Day Ocean Intelligence Forum + HH: From Data to Decisions for Marine Protection & Real-Time Ocean Awareness, SF Climate Week’s top gathering of ocean professionals and enthusiasts.
The event will be held at Sofar Ocean HQ in partnership with TMA BlueTech, bringing together leading voices in ocean innovation and marine protection.
Oceans cover 70% of our planet and support billions of lives — yet most remain unmonitored and underprotected. From Marine Protected Areas to shipping lanes, fisheries to coastlines, the need for real-time ocean awareness has never been greater. New tools in sensing, satellite technology, and AI are helping make that possible. This Earth Day, leaders across technology, science, and maritime operations come together to explore how ocean intelligence can drive faster, smarter decisions for our ocean.
