Our very first Impact Report showcases the stories of our rookie year. While the numbers speak for themselves, we are incredibly proud of the collaborative culture and power of our partners combined efforts that weaves its way through every page. The results are tangible.

Here’s a sneak peek of what you’ll find:

• In less than 12 months, we have skyrocketed from a simple concept to a globally-recognised cluster of over 30 partner companies.  
• We hosted over 20 collaboration inspiring events, including our monthly Partner Forums, New Zealand’s first Blue Economy Innovation Summit and a 12-company Immersion Tour to Australia.
• Our work has been catalytic, resulting in new ventures and investment attraction, solidifying Nelson Tasman as New Zealand's hub of blue economy innovation and rapid commercialisation.
• We’re not just riding the wave; we’re setting our sights on ambitious targets. We have released our first 5-year Strategic Framework to provide a clear path to continue our current trajectory.

As we reflect on our remarkable journey to date, we are excited to continue accelerating growth in the blue economy, ensuring that the best is yet to come.
