Building a sustainable future

From November 5-11, 2025, three global leaders working to build a sustainable future - Sustainable Ocean Solutions (SOS), Builders Vision and the Sustainable Ocean Alliance (SOA) - will unite their flagship events in San Francisco for a unique ocean and climate experience. 

The program brings together leading players from around the world, including Google X, Scripps, MBARI, Institute of Marine Research, UIB, SINTEF Ocean, Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, Creative Distribution Lab, Ferd, Kverva, Startuplab, VIS, Start Blue Ocean Accelerator, Stanford Ocean Lab, Johns Hopkins University, The Nature Conservancy, Walton Family Foundation and the World Economic Forum.

Together, we bring together people and expertise across geography and disciplines, bringing together innovators, young leaders, policy makers, academics and investors to advance solutions in renewable energy, sustainable aquaculture, ecosystem restoration and climate adaptation.
