The Women’s Aquatic Network is partnering with blueTIDES by Blue Robotics and the Surfrider Foundation DC Chapter to host an evening of food, drinks, and captivating conversation at Free State the evening before Capitol Hill Ocean Week! blueTIDES harnesses Technology, Innovation, Discovery, and Exciting Stuff to fuel epic, inclusive events driving the future of the Blue Economy.

​The ocean should be accessible to everyone, so blueTIDES is working to lower the barriers to entry into the Blue Economy. Blue Robotics builds affordable marine technology and develops educational programs to teach people how to use the tech. Pairing the tools with the infrastructure, training, and community expands who can participate in ocean industries, from research and conservation to aquaculture and beyond.

​Come connect at this widely attended gathering with a growing network of practitioners, partners, and policymakers!  Learn how accessible marine tech, shared resources, and community-driven programs are creating new pathways into the Blue Economy.

​Space is limited and RSVP is required! RSVP here
