The Blue Ocean Dome, one of the most anticipated and symbolic venues of Expo 2025 Osaka, became the stage for an inspiring showcase of next-generation ocean technologies and sustainability-driven collaboration. As the first private pavilion in the history of World Expos dedicated solely to the ocean, it has already positioned itself as a landmark not only of design and architecture but also of global ambition for regenerative marine innovation.
As part of the Dome’s series of high-level engagements and keynote sessions, we were proud to share our sustainability-focused marine technologies with an audience of global decision-makers, innovators, and public visitors. Our participation in this historic venue was made possible through the longstanding collaboration with SARAYA Group and the ZERI Foundation, organizations that have consistently championed the intersection of environmental stewardship and systemic innovation.
At the heart of our presentation was the unveiling of a holistic approach to ocean impact. This included demonstrations and discussions around our integrated solutions: Wingfurl™, an auxiliary wind propulsion system designed to decarbonise commercial shipping; Netless™, a selective fishing system addressing bycatch and plastic retrieval; and Streamesh™, a modular microplastics recovery system designed for deployment across multiple vessel types.
These technologies are not theoretical concepts, they are engineered for immediate implementation, with pilot programs such as the integrated Blue Fishery™ initiative already underway in regions aligned with the EU green deal, Ocean pact, startup & scale up strategy, , bilateral strategic partnership with GCC, WestMED Initiative and European Network of Maritime Clusters. Scalable solutions that aim not only to mitigate harm but also to regenerate and restore marine ecosystems through real-world application.The Blue Ocean Dome itself is a manifestation of ocean-first values. Designed by world-renowned architect Shigeru Ban using biomimicry and constructed with low-impact materials, the Dome served as both a symbolic and practical arena for advancing marine sustainability. It will remain engraved in the long list of the 37 world expos recognized by the Bureau International des Expositions (BEI) , held around the world since 1851, as the first privately financed pavilion exclusively dedicated to the ocean.
The event reaffirmed our belief that innovation must serve both the planet and people. Our thanks go to the SARAYA Group, the ZERI Foundation, and all Expo 2025 partners who made the Blue Ocean Dome a reality. We look forward to deepening the relationships and conversations sparked in Osaka, and to bringing these shared visions to life through transnational partnerships, co-funded implementation frameworks, and continued technological advancement.
Together, we move forward toward a marine economy where human ingenuity nurtures rather than depletes the ocean, a future that begins with innovation but is sustained through collaboration.
