Our Innovation Workshops provide a forum for tackling sustainability challenges that affect competitive sailing and ocean health.

Created as a way of sharing best practice and advancing solutions, the sessions bring together an expert group around a specific topic. Through engaging virtual sessions the attendees help to create a roadmap for action that will drive change to help our ocean. Each group is specially selected to represent diverse viewpoints on the subject in order to find tangible solutions that work. Our last Innovation Workshop, Communicating Ocean Science With Impact, brought together scientists, sailors, media, academics, data visualisation specialists, representatives from the gaming community and many others.

The Innovation Workshops are run with 11th Hour Racing, the Race’s Founding Sustainability Partner and a Premier Partner.
