About Fórum Oceano

Free access for the Portuguese delegates

Portugal’s featured-country status will give the national delegation access to the event.

This participation is also part of the BLUE INTERNATIONALIZATION BUSINESS MISSION SERIES ignited by Fórum Oceano, a programme designed to connect Portuguese organisations with international markets and generate practical opportunities for cooperation, business development, investment and participation in European projects.

The mission is particularly relevant for technology companies, startups, scaleups, research centres, universities, ports and organisations working in ocean energy, robotics, sensors, marine data, artificial intelligence, maritime security, blue biotechnology and ocean innovation.

Fórum Oceano invites its associates, as well as other Portuguese organisations with a strategic interest in these sectors, to join the delegation and contribute to a strong, diverse and impactful national presence in Brest.
