Innovate UK EDGE, the national innovation agency's business growth service, will once again host a 1-2-1 brokerage event during Oceanology International 2024 this March at London’s ExCeL.
Free for attendees of Oi24, the international business-to-business matchmaking event takes place in a dedicated networking area on the middle day of the ocean technology and marine science exhibition and conference, on Wednesday 13th March.
Oceanology International, and its co-located event OceanICT, is expected to welcome 7,500+ attendees and 450+ exhibitors from 80+ countries. Linking key players in the industry from business, academia and government, Oi24 will bring together thousands of international industry buyers, influencers, and professionals for the unparalleled global marketplace, forum and networking opportunity.
Innovate UK EDGE has supported Oi by hosting the free, focused B2B networking opportunity within the exhibition since 2018, enabling businesses to facilitate collaborations, meet exciting new partners and create real business development opportunities at pre-arranged meetings.
Participants post their profile and opportunities prior to the event and request meetings with key local and global contacts. Personal agendas are then sent out two days before the event with the exact time and location of meetings.
The matchmaking event is aimed at marine and maritime companies working in a range of sectors, including blue economy, ocean science, energy transition, vehicles and vessels, ocean observation, site navigation and ocean ICT.
It is recommended for anyone looking for:
- New customers, partners or financiers for their company.
- New potential partners to develop their business and research objectives.
- Partners to adapt their technology, including for dual-use applications.
- Partners to boost their innovation.
