Innovating Ocean Data: Arctificial Intelligence and Business Investments

You’re listening to the Arctic Circle Podcast.

In today’s episode, we’re diving into how ocean data and analysis are enabling technologies that can support better decision-making across the Arctic - socially, environmentally, and economically.

We’ll explore the ocean data value chain, and take a look at both established and emerging use cases, from aquaculture and commercial operations to government and defense. We’ll also talk about how ocean and climate data are being used in dynamic risk management, and how they’re helping drive innovation in insurance.

Joining us today are:

• Blaine Grimes, Chief Ventures Officer at Gulf of Maine Ventures, Gulf of Maine Research Institute
• Ólavur Gregersen, CEO of Ocean Rainforest
• Steve Woll, COO and Head of Business Development at Ocean Data Network
• Dan Bookham, Senior Vice President for Business Development and Commercial Lines at Allen Insurance & Financial

The conversation and the audience Q&A are moderated by Dan Berger, Director of the Maine North Atlantic Development Office at the Maine International Trade Center.

This panel was organized by the Maine International Trade Center and NORA – North Atlantic Cooperation, and it was recorded live at the 2024 Arctic Circle Business Forum.
