The BlueInvest: Investment Strategies for the Blue Economy training course develops the knowledge required to assess and finance sustainable ocean-based investments. It explains how ocean, coastal and maritime industries create opportunities for investment, innovation and sustainable development. Participants examine renewable marine energy, coastal tourism, aquaculture, transportation and marine biotechnology as areas within this rapidly expanding investment frontier. The course also establishes a clear, structured understanding of the Blue Economy’s role in global economic growth.
Participants explore the opportunities and strategic challenges involved in financing Blue Economy projects, including their distinctive investment characteristics. They consider regulatory constraints, environmental factors and emerging technological advances when analysing prospective marine-based investments. Practical insights, interactive discussions and real case examples support learning about financing approaches, risk management practices and relevant analytical tools. Delegates from private, public and non-governmental organisations learn to formulate effective strategies, evaluate opportunities and understand the long-term value potential of Blue Economy initiatives.
