The Sustainable Ocean Summit (SOS), organized by the World Ocean Council (WOC), is convening again this year a unique gathering of ocean business leaders, from across the sectors and around the world, to focus on action for ocean sustainable development. This new edition will be held in Hong Kong, 14-16 November 2018, around the theme: "Ocean Sustainable Development - Connecting Asia and the World". Over three days, SOS 2018 attendees will explore a range of topics including Asian Ports and Sustainable Development, Shipbuilding for Sustainability, Women in Ocean Industries, Ocean and Climate, Ocean Investment Platform, Asian Shipping and more through plenaries, workshops, and parallel sessions. Ocean business leaders are again stepping forward to be part of the SOS program.

The SOS is where the global Ocean Business Community meets to advance action on ocean sustainable development and the Blue Economy.

For three days, the SOS 2018, with a focus on Asia and its relation to the global ocean economy, will assemble ocean industry CEOs to address the future of the ocean business, provide ocean economy projections, bring together women leaders in the maritime sector and Young Ocean Professionals, address port resiliency, sustainable fishing and aquaculture, energy from the ocean, marine biodiversity, increasing ocean knowledge through industry data collection — and other topics critical to the U.N. Sustainable Development Goals.
