This workshop will build upon two preliminary cross-sectoral and cross-disciplinary meetings, the first one took place in Faial, Azores, Portugal (October 29th, 2018) and this preliminary meeting taking place in Las Palmas, Canary Island, Spain, to better understand local and regional information needs to enhance job creation and innovation in the blue economy and to foster the sustainable use of marine resources as a main economic component.
