International Conference and Expo on Blue Economy

HYDERABAD, INDIA | 27-29 April, 2026

Connecting Nations Through the Blue Economy

A global forum for collaboration on ocean governance, maritime security, and sustainable development, while strengthening aquaculture and fisheries to secure the future of food.

Welcome to Blue India 2026

The International Conference on Blue Economy: Blue India will serve as India’s premier global platform, bringing together policymakers, industry leaders, stakeholders, and researchers to explore the full potential of the Blue Economy. As seafood demand rises alongside India’s growing population, and as India’s coastal and marine sectors expand, critical challenges—such as sustainable resource use, climate resilience, biodiversity protection, equitable market access, and responsible management of offshore resources—must be addressed through innovative, transformative, and collaborative solutions.

The conference will provide a unique forum to discuss the integration of ocean resources into national accounting frameworks, sustainable coastal development and tourism, and the advancement of fisheries, aquaculture, and value-added fish processing. Delegates will also examine emerging marine industries, maritime trade and infrastructure, technological innovations, and the governance of deep-sea mining and offshore energy. In addition, sessions will explore maritime security, strategic dimensions, and international collaboration to ensure safe, resilient, and well-managed ocean spaces.

Attendees will gain insights into scientific advancements, technological innovations, and practical strategies that address the evolving needs of India’s Blue Economy while supporting sustainable growth, resilient communities, and global engagement.
