The Economist Group's World Ocean Summit will take place in Tokyo from March 9th-10th, 2020.

The World Ocean Summit 2020 will Examine the Innovations reshaping established Ocean industries, and what the Implications may be, Good and Bad, for both the Sustainability of the Ocean and the Industries that Operate within it.

A New Ocean Agenda is taking Shape. New Waves of Investment in the “Blue Economy” are Rising. Ambitious National Strategies are Encouraging the Development of Industries such as: Bio-Prospecting, Sustainable Aquaculture, Tourism, and Deep-Sea Mining.

The Organization for Economic Co-Operation and Development (OECD) estimates that the Ocean Economy already Accounts for 2.5% of Global GDP and by 2030 it is Projected to Double in size to $3trn.

New Technologies and Innovative Partnerships suggest that an Era of genuinely Blue, or Sustainable, Growth is just Around the Corner.

However, even the most Thoughtful and Sophisticated National Blue-Economy Plans typically Prioritize Economic Growth over Conservation and Restoration.

The Next Wave of Ocean Industrialization is upon us, yet our Understanding of the Costs and Benefits remains Inadequate.
