Blue Economy Science Summit (BESS 2022) - Stakeholder Engagement

With this annual event, VLIZ and the Blue Cluster want to connect companies and science, increase cooperation and together develop a vision and strategy for the future of the Blue Economy. Come to Bluebridge on the Science Park in Ostend on Wednesday afternoon, May 18. Meet and make contact with companies and knowledge institutions and learn more about what is going on in the marine and maritime sector.

The Blue Economy Science Summit (BESS) is the successor of Marine Science Meets Maritime Industry (MSMMI). During this annual event, entrepreneurs and scientists are challenged to think about marine and maritime issues and find an answer together. The central theme this time around is stakeholder engagement. Besides interesting keynotes and panel discussions on stakeholder engagement, we will provide an innovation market where you can get to know various marine research and innovation projects. During our live event, you can visit several stands, talk to the project partners and find out what the future holds.
