The global blue economy is forecasted to reach a value of $3 trillion (USD) by 2030. Canada\u2019s ocean industries stand to benefit greatly from this growth. To help capture an inclusive, pan-Canadian picture of the private enterprise, research and educational institutions, and innovation ecosystem stakeholders in this country\u2019s ocean economy, the Ocean Technology Alliance Canada (OTAC) with delivery partner OceansAdvance, is leading the development of a digital ocean asset map and database.<\/p>\n

OTAC has contracted Triware Technologies Inc., to lead the research, validation and categorization of stakeholders in key ocean sectors including, but not limited to, oil and gas, fisheries, aquaculture, ocean sensing, ocean mapping, underwater acoustics, and supply and service. The result will be a searchable database of Canada\u2019s private, public and non-government ocean ecosystem, housed on Canada\u2019s Ocean Supercluster\u2019s website.<\/p>\n

The Government of Canada, through the Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency (ACOA), is making a non-repayable investment of $250,000 in this initiative.<\/p>\n

The Honourable Seamus O\u2019Regan, Minister of Indigenous Services and Member of Parliament for St. John\u2019s South\u2014Mount Pearl, on behalf of the Honourable Navdeep Bains, Minister of Innovation, Science and Economic Development and Minister responsible for ACOA, made the announcement today.<\/p>\n

Economic growth and the creation of good jobs for Atlantic Canadians require innovation and diversification. Support for this project is one way the Government of Canada is growing the innovation economy by working to sustain strategic clusters, and enhance the development and reach of business accelerators and incubators. Projects like this also contribute to the Atlantic Growth Strategy outcome of long-term economic prosperity in the region.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe forecasted growth in the global blue economy represents great opportunity for our country and the Government of Canada is working hard to ensure we are not just part of that growth, but that we lead it. Our investment in Canada\u2019s Ocean Supercluster and in projects like the Ocean Technology Alliance Canada\u2019s inclusive, digital, pan-Canadian asset map, help strengthen our ocean capacity and set us up for continued success at home and abroad.\u201d<\/p>\n

– The Honourable Navdeep Bains, Minister of Innovation, Science and Economic Development and Minister responsible for ACOA<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cMaps are vital tools in our every day lives. From navigating our streets to sailing our seas, they allow us to discover new things and places, and to make connections. This initiative will not only allow Canadians to search valuable information about our country\u2019s ocean sectors, it will also allow international stakeholders to do the same. This opens up unlimited potential for global partnerships and investments, further strengthening the world\u2019s ocean economy and Canada\u2019s place in it.\u201d<\/p>\n

– The Honourable Seamus O\u2019Regan, Minister of Indigenous Services and Member of Parliament for St. John\u2019s South\u2014Mount Pearl<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cThe Ocean Technology Alliance Canada is excited to partner with the Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency and Canada\u2019s Ocean Supercluster to drive the development of an ocean-focused Canadian asset map and database that will represent the collective strengths and capabilities of our industry\u2019s ocean innovation ecosystem. This resource, while demonstrating the depth and breadth of our sector, will connect industry, research and academic partners across the country and around the world. We look forward to reaching out to partners across Canada to ensure everyone in the ocean space has an opportunity to participate in this important initiative.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u00ab\u00a0This will be a tool for all Canadians focused on the ocean economy looking to collaborate Nationally and compete Globally. The Ocean Supercluster is pleased to partner with the Ocean Technology Alliance of Canada, ACOA and many other organizations to connect industry and communities as we grow Canada’s ocean economy.\u00a0\u00bb<\/p>\n

L\u2019\u00e9conomie bleue devrait atteindre une valeur mondiale de trois mille milliards de dollars am\u00e9ricains d\u2019ici 2030. Les industries oc\u00e9aniques du Canada b\u00e9n\u00e9ficieront grandement de cette croissance. Afin d\u2019obtenir un portrait exhaustif pancanadien des entreprises, des \u00e9tablissements de recherche et d\u2019enseignement ainsi que des intervenants de l\u2019\u00e9cosyst\u00e8me d\u2019innovation de l\u2019\u00e9conomie oc\u00e9anique du pays, Ocean Technology Alliance Canada (OTAC) dirige l\u2019\u00e9laboration d\u2019une carte num\u00e9rique des atouts oc\u00e9aniques et d\u2019une base de donn\u00e9es, en partenariat avec OceansAdvance (en anglais seulement).<\/p>\n

OTAC a retenu les services de Triware Technologies Inc. pour diriger la recherche, la validation et la cat\u00e9gorisation des intervenants dans les principaux secteurs oc\u00e9aniques qui comprennent, sans toutefois s\u2019y limiter, l\u2019industrie p\u00e9troli\u00e8re et gazi\u00e8re, les p\u00eaches, l\u2019aquaculture, la t\u00e9l\u00e9d\u00e9tection oc\u00e9anique, la cartographie des oc\u00e9ans, l\u2019acoustique sous\u2011marine ainsi que l\u2019approvisionnement et les services. Le r\u00e9sultat sera une base de donn\u00e9es interrogeable sur l\u2019ensemble de l\u2019\u00e9cosyst\u00e8me oc\u00e9anique du Canada, y compris les secteurs priv\u00e9, public et non gouvernemental, h\u00e9berg\u00e9e sur le site Web de la supergrappe oc\u00e9anique du Canada (Canada\u2019s Ocean Supercluster, en anglais seulement).<\/p>\n

Le gouvernement du Canada, par l\u2019entremise de l\u2019Agence de promotion \u00e9conomique du Canada atlantique (APECA), verse une contribution non remboursable de 250 000 $ \u00e0 l\u2019appui de cette initiative.<\/p>\n

L\u2019honorable Seamus O\u2019Regan, ministre des Services aux Autochtones et d\u00e9put\u00e9 f\u00e9d\u00e9ral de St. John\u2019s\u2011Sud \u2013 Mount Pearl, au nom de l\u2019honorable Navdeep Bains, ministre de l\u2019Innovation, des Sciences et du D\u00e9veloppement \u00e9conomique et ministre responsable de l\u2019APECA, en a fait l\u2019annonce aujourd\u2019hui.<\/p>\n

L\u2019innovation et la diversification sont n\u00e9cessaires \u00e0 la croissance \u00e9conomique et \u00e0 la cr\u00e9ation de bons emplois pour les gens du Canada atlantique. L\u2019appui accord\u00e9 \u00e0 ce projet est l\u2019un des moyens employ\u00e9s par le gouvernement du Canada pour faire cro\u00eetre l\u2019\u00e9conomie de l\u2019innovation en soutenant les grappes strat\u00e9giques et en renfor\u00e7ant le d\u00e9veloppement et la port\u00e9e des acc\u00e9l\u00e9rateurs et des incubateurs d\u2019entreprises. Les projets comme celui-ci contribuent aussi au r\u00e9sultat de la Strat\u00e9gie de croissance pour l\u2019Atlantique, c\u2019est\u2011\u00e0\u2011dire la prosp\u00e9rit\u00e9 \u00e9conomique \u00e0 long terme dans la r\u00e9gion.<\/p>\n
