Developing a sustainable ocean economy is vital to the future of our planet 

Nation states, business sector alliances and academia need to balance the emerging imperative to drive Blue Growth with the development of systems and models that ensure that can be done sustainably. 

Our ability to achieve this will therefore depend on the effectiveness of individual and global efforts to:

• Promote and pioneer the Blue Economy, in order to add value and attract additional investment that is economically and environmentally sustainable 

Technology and innovation will without question play a pivotal role in supporting these aims in the coming century, and Nick Lambert Associates has been established to provide new strategic insight and operational energy to catalyse new and much needed targeted action in this realm.
