Today federal US money funds more than 50% of key global ocean monitoring systems. However, the Trump administration “rejects and denounces the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development” which is fundamental to collaborative frameworks including the Ocean Decade. How to progress international ocean science and innovation now? How to relate to the US state level, US businesses, China and Russia? The navy is strengthening, but will tighter relations with the navy and dual use of of data hamper international collaboration in civilian science and innovation? How about satellite systems, the integrity of data streams from measurements at sea and how about open innovation that has characterized successful clusters?
A highly qualified panel will discuss how their international relations are changing and how to position themselves in the immediate future and the next 5 years. The event is set in the framework of the One Ocean Expedition with relevance both to the 2025-2026 Expedition to the UN Ocean Conference in Nice and around the North American continent and to the strategy for the next expedition 2028-2030. This event is hosted jointly by the Institute of Marine Research and the Statsraad Lehmkuhl Foundation/One Ocean Expedition and will be moderated by IMR Policy Director Peter M Haugan.
