Highlights
The Blue Economy encompassed all activities and economic sub-industries that operate from the ports of cities, a nerve centre that plays home to global flows of transport, goods and recreational activities that take place at sea. The maritime industry is a leader in innovation and generates high-quality employment that requires different professional qualifications, whether in the import and export sub-industry, the water sport and recreation sub-industry, the cruise sub-industry or the transport services sub-industry. The constant growth seen in this industry can be attributed to it clearly being an economic sector that creates employment.
