The New England Ocean Cluster was proudly created in partnership with Þor Sigfusson, Founder and Chairman of the Iceland Ocean Cluster (IOC), headquartered in Reykjavik. Like our sister cluster, the NEOC's goal is to connect people within the ocean economy, with the goal of encouraging an innovative and sustainable approach to pursuing economic opportunity.Core to the NEOC's efforts is the firmly held belief that new ideas must be transformational; they must inspire the development of unique products, they must improve existing services, and they must create new opportunities for exchange between communities and cultures. If we want society to look at the ocean differently and more holistically, then we must work together. This is the ‘rising tide' mentality and a fundamental tenet of the New England Ocean Cluster.MISSIONTo create a platform that facilitates progressive innovation within the ocean economy by connecting a diverse community of people, businesses and entrepreneurs.VISIONOur vision is of an ocean-focused society where collaboration has led to a healthy marriage between economy and sustainability.
