Blue Gates

Empowering Blue and Smart Transformation of the Black Sea Basin

The EU Blue Economy report 2022 highlights the importance of the Blue Economy sector in the European Union. It comprises sectors like marine living resources, renewable energy, port activities, shipbuilding, maritime transport, and coastal tourism. These sectors have immense potential for economic growth, employment, and sustainable development. To tap into this potential, a more sustainable and innovative ecosystem of blue economy actors is needed. The project aims to unite the efforts of regional and local bodies, universities, and research centres to create joint tools, platforms, knowledge, capacities, and solutions for the Blue Economy ecosystem.
