SUMMARY:Blue Finance 2026
DESCRIPTION:Ocean and Coastal Futures Ltd\nBlue Finance 2026 follows the journey money has to make — from institutional capital markets to the coast itself\, and to the businesses\, large and small\, whose decisions determine what actually happens in the water. It asks how the UK reshapes that pathway well enough to become a model others follow. \nFour tracks\, one journey\nA · Scaling the market\nBuilding investable natural capital markets for marine nature\nBlue carbon\, marine net gain\, nutrient neutrality and biodiversity credits are where the Crown Estate\, devolved governments\, regulators and private buyers are all working now. But markets only scale if buyers trust what they’re buying and sellers can deliver what they promise. \nB · Blended finance and catalytic capital\nMaking public and philanthropic money work harder\nFirst-loss layers\, guarantees\, concessional capital and blended vehicles — what actually crowds money in\, and why so many structures never reach close. \nC · The last mile\nGetting finance to communities and the coast\nThe heart of the event. Capital accumulates at the top; the people who deliver recovery operate at a scale finance isn’t built to serve\, in a marine space that’s contested and heavily consented. \nD · Procurement\, disclosure and influence\nFinancing prevention\, not just repair\nThe biggest lever for preventing harm isn’t new capital — it’s the conditions attached to capital and trade that already exist. Purchase orders\, sourcing standards and disclosure rules often move practice faster than a fund or a regulator can.

SUMMARY:World Conference on Marine Biodiversity
DESCRIPTION:Flanders Marine Institute\nThe 7th edition of the World Conference on Marine Biodiversity will be organized in Bruges between November 17th and 20th 2026. Find out more about the venue here. \nThe WCMB 2026 will fly the UN Ocean Decade flag\, as it has been endorsed as a UN Ocean Decade Event. The overall theme of the Conference is “The marine biodiversity insights we need\, for the ocean we want”. As the Conference will take place a little over halfway through the UN Ocean Decade\, it will provide an excellent opportunity to take stock of ongoing actions and initiatives\, but also evaluate what still needs to be tackled by the end of the Decade.
