Learn more about the possibilities for combining offshore business activities on August 10th!

A sustainable blue economy is one that optimizes resource utilization and promotes good cooperation. Numerous projects have been pioneering in this area, such as the UNITED project Home (h2020united.eu), which has piloted a solution for combining offshore wind power installations with shellfish and seaweed farming.

Despite good initiatives, we still lack good business models for multi-use and collaboration at sea. What would a profitable and sustainable co-location look like in reality? How can a self-sufficient multi-use platform at sea look? What are the low-hanging fruits and win-win situations for this new blue sector?

Multi-use in the ocean is an exciting and growing sector for the Nordic blue economy:

• It promotes efficient use of ocean resources, such as spatial use, logistics, and infrastructure.

• It can reduce the industry's environmental footprint and increase effective ocean zoning for sustainable management.

• It drives innovation, cooperation, and cross-sector symbiosis, which in turn promotes blue economic growth!

Do you want to learn more about this and get involved in the conversation about the challenges and opportunities for multi-use at sea in the Nordic region–
