Opportunity

Where innovation creates momentum.

Whether you're launching a startup, exploring new technologies, seeking investment opportunities, or building strategic partnerships, IGNITE22 connects the people and ideas driving the blue economy forward.

Instead of simply showcasing innovation, the event creates opportunities for collaboration, commercialization, and industry adoption.

Attendee insights.

We were honored to host this dynamic gathering of entrepreneurs, innovators, investors, and industry leaders working together to advance solutions for some of our world's most pressing challenges.

AltaSea at the Port of Los Angeles

A highlight of the event was reconnecting with longtime partners and meeting new ones… These are exactly the partnerships that strengthen the international ecosystem our BlueTech startups rely on.

Israeli National Center of the Blue Economy

It was energizing to see so much innovation across supply chain, logistics, port operations, and international trade and even better to meet so many leaders working to move the industry forward.

ClearDock

We go to about 30-40 conferences or tradeshows each year. By far the most unique is IGNITE22. We have been coming here since 2022, and it gets better and better every year.

Events like this remind me how much momentum is building around the blue economy. Already looking forward to the next one.

OoMee

Set against the backdrop of the Port of Los Angeles, open water, and a clear sky… it was a strong reminder that logistics and sustainability aren't just "nice-to-haves." They are the backbone of this country and our standard of living.

Glid

One of the biggest takeaways was a reminder that while the challenges facing our coasts are significant, there are brilliant minds across sectors working every day to develop practical, scalable solutions.

Center for Sea Rise Solutions

Fantastic event for the Ocean Economy. Thanks to the organizers and attendees. Florida wants to learn from you.

Colin Polsky,

Florida Atlantic University

It was an incredible experience joining a select group of blue economy innovators at IGNITE22 who are focused on building tangible solutions rather than dwelling on the problem.

TechG-X

We had some great conversations with fellow innovators, environmental advocates, and community leaders who care deeply about the future of our blue planet.
