CREATING LEADERS IN OCEAN HEALTH
Students engaged in ocean literacy education and sustainability design challenges in 2021
People attended events we sponsored in 2021
Sponsorships have led to a sizeable shift in the sailing industry’s approach to sustainability
OUR UNIQUE PROPOSITION
We use the power of sport to sell sustainability instead of products. By sponsoring organizations and events interested in reducing their environmental impact, we enable them to become leaders in ocean health. Our sponsorships provide funds, tools, and resources to empower with a focus on sport, strategic innovation, and sustainable technologies.
We place a strong emphasis on the connection between land and water — because what happens on land affects our ocean and waterways.
Sponsorship Strategy
We engage with the broader maritime industry and coastal communities through a variety of projects. The unifying narrative – “the success of our planet rides on one thing – the health of our ocean” – is felt throughout our programs.
Sports
We optimize the economic, environmental, and social impacts of professional sports on and off the playing field.
Strategic innovation
We foster innovative solutions and sustainability best practices to reduce the environmental impact of large-scale public-facing events.
Sustainable technology
We encourage the development of sustainable technologies and demonstrate their viability.
