The New England Aquarium’s Lowell Lecture Series presents Sustainable Ocean Alliance (SOA) Founder and CEO Daniela Fernandez, a pioneering ocean advocate and social entrepreneur. SOA is a global nonprofit organization dedicated to activating young people, developing and implementing innovative solutions, and mobilizing an ocean workforce to restore the health of the ocean in our lifetime.
Last year, SOA welcomed its Ecopreneur Network Class of 2023 with 11 startups committed to advancing sustainable ocean and climate solutions. To date, Ecopreneur Network members and their startups have raised some $460 million in total estimated investment capital and employ more than 700 individuals.
In her talk, Fernandez will examine how these innovative entrepreneurs are driving systemic change across five impact areas: blue carbon, ecosystem preservation, ocean pollution, sustainable fisheries, and ocean data and literacy, and why it matters.
This New England Aquarium Lowell Lecture Series event is free to the public through the generosity of the Lowell Institute. Advance registration is required.
Virtual registration closes at 2:00 p.m. on November 13.
