Ocean Space Forum returns to Monaco on 2 July 2026
By Zak Jackson, MonacoViews Editorial
The Principality hosts the third edition of the Ocean Space Forum, bringing together policymakers, scientists and space industry leaders to address ocean and climate challenges.
On 2 July 2026, Monaco will host the third Ocean Space Forum, a summit that sits at the intersection of oceanography, climate science and space technology. The event draws public decision-makers, international organisations, researchers, industry figures and space sector representatives into a single room, with the stated aim of deepening dialogue between communities that do not always share a platform.
The forum's central argument is that satellite and space-based technologies are becoming indispensable tools for understanding, protecting and managing the ocean sustainably. Sessions will take the form of conferences and thematic round tables, giving delegates structured opportunities to move from broad principle to specific application.
For Monaco, a Principality whose environmental commitments are bound closely to the sea, hosting this forum for a third time reinforces its standing as a genuine convening point for international ocean governance. Residents and property owners with an interest in the Principality's long-term coastal and environmental agenda will find the outcomes of this summit worth following.
