The 2013 Sustainable Ocean Summit (SOS) event will take place in Washington DC on 22-24 April.
SOS 2013 follows on from the successful inaugural SOS convened by the World Ocean Council (WOC) in Belfast in 2010, and the steady growth of the WOC since then as the only international, multi-industry leadership alliance on ‘Corporate Ocean Responsibility’.
SOS 2013 is designed to attract leadership companies from the diverse range of ocean industries: shipping, oil and gas, fisheries, aquaculture, tourism, offshore renewable energy, ports, dredging, mining, cables and pipelines, marine science, engineering and technology, the maritime legal, financial and insurance communities, and others, as well as ocean stakeholders from the government, inter-governmental, academic and environment communities.
