Testimonials

“The delegates are a very strategically chosen body of individuals. Virtually everyone who attends Ocean Exchange has the capacity to open doors.”

“When you bring an eclectic mix of highly intelligent, passionate people together, that’s when lightning strikes.”

“Ocean Exchange is entirely different from any of the other organizations that I’m involved in. It is about sustainable innovation. I think it’s also very different in the extremely broad range of stakeholders that it involves.”
