REV Ocean Science Director Alex Rogers highlights ‘blue economy’ opportunities at the World Ocean Summit

Throughout the week Alex participated in panel presentations, group discussions and side meeting with key partners interested in collaborating with REV Ocean. Many of these opportunities will help us develop our science priorities, develop pilot projects for innovative research, and collaborations on education activities.

REV Ocean is developing the Ocean Data Platform (ODP), and there was much interest in generating data applications for user communities such as fisheries tracking projects, data on plastics and marine mining.
