As part of PHAROS’ Citizen Litter Entrepreneur program, Impact Hub Athens is launching “Meet the Oceanpreneur”: an engaging 8-part webinar series running from September 2025 to November 2026. Each session will tackle a key topic: ranging from plastic pollution to sustainable tourism, aligned with EU priorities and co-curated with a fellow Mission Ocean project, whose representative will moderate the discussion.
The event is designed for innovators, researchers, and changemakers across the blue economy, including startups, academics, students, local authorities, policymakers, private sector leaders, educators, and civil society.
Each 50-minute webinar follows a fireside chat format featuring storytelling, real-world insights, and meaningful exchange. Two speakers present their work in 10-minute segments, followed by a 20-minute moderated discussion and a 10-minute live Q&A. The sessions are fast-paced, focused, and designed to maximize impact.
Two speakers share their work in concise 10-minute segments, followed by a 20-minute moderated dialogue and a 10-minute live Q&A.
Innovative concepts such as digital ocean twins, blue finance, citizen science, and circular economy solutions will be introduced to establish a shared foundation for the sessions to follow.
Across eight sessions, Meet the Oceanpreneur explores the key challenges and bold opportunities shaping a sustainable blue economy:
