Inspire

Portugal’s Exclusive Economic Zone is 18 times larger than its land territory, making it one of the largest in the world. Just as our ocean is vast, we want people, startups, and companies to think big—to imagine and create solutions as expansive as our waters, exploring new industries, technologies, and possibilities that will redefine the way we interact with the sea

Support

The blue economy spans multiple sectors, from bio-marine innovation to clean energy, creating countless opportunities for growth. We are here to support startups and entrepreneurs who dare to explore these frontiers, providing them with the tools, networks, and investment needed to scale their impact and shape the future of the maritime sector

Invest

Portugal’s maritime economy may account for only 2.5% to 3% of our GDP, but the sea remains the very soul of our nation. For centuries, the ocean has not only sustained our livelihoods but also inspired our explorers, innovators, and dreamers. Today, we invest in individuals and businesses to unlock its vast potential—to invest in its future, harness its energy, and drive transformative progress. Embrace the ocean as a catalyst for innovation and growth, and join us in celebrating a legacy that is as deep and boundless as the sea itself
