Blue Economy

We foster marine-based economic development that is sustainable, innovative and knowledge-driven.

At AZTI, we deliver solutions that improve ocean knowledge, reduce the environmental footprint of human activities and create new opportunities linked to the sea.

Research sublines

Ocean observation and coastal resilience

We design and operate systems to monitor the status, dynamics and evolution of marine and coastal ecosystems. We provide key information for marine spatial planning, climate change adaptation and the protection of vulnerable habitats.

Decarbonisation and sustainable management of marine activities

We support the transition towards low-impact marine activities by delivering solutions to reduce emissions, improve energy efficiency and ensure the sustainable use of living marine resources through ecological modelling and management tools.

Valorisation of marine resources and digitalisation

We transform marine biomass into ingredients and bioproducts for sectors such as food, health and cosmetics. Digital technologies and data analytics are used to enhance observation, integrated management and the development of new activities within a circular blue economy.
