Description
We are proud to welcome you to our fifth online edition of the Ocean Plastic International Matchmaking (OPIM), a networking event dedicated to creating contacts to potential investors, customers, suppliers, developers, research institutions and cooperative partners within the emerging ocean plastic industry. It is an alternative to traditional conferences where the right partner organizations might be difficult to find.
During the day you will gain insights from our 3 key note speakers outlining within the ocean plastic prevention and recycling domain:
Coming changes to international legislation
Key challenges and reasons for having a legally binding UN plastic treaty. Lars Fogh Mortensen, Expert in Circular Economy and Plastic, and part of the EU delegation to the UN plastic negotiations.
The largest ocean cleanup in history
The Ocean Cleanup is a frontrunner, having tackled plastic pollution in the ocean since 2013, having successfully reduced the size of the Pacific Ocean garbage patch as well as taking steps in the Indian Ocean. Tatjana Scroggie, head of Supply Chain, Ocean Cleanup.
Upcoming funding and investment opportunities
Introduction from Innovayt to international funding, grants and investments within ocean plastic prevention.
Before and after the keynote speakers, you will be able to prebook online meetings with other participating organisations across the whole ocean plastic supply and recycling chain. The B2B meetings last up to 30 minutes and you have the possibility to meet with as many companies & organisations as you can fit in the day.
OPIM is global but the official language of the main program will be in English, with start time being 14:00 CET.
Price: Euro 25 + VAT. (OPIM is organized by nonprofit organizations and the participation fee is solely dedicated to covering technical assistance and necessary software licenses required for the event)
