Event Overview

The annual meeting of the EU project BioGeoSea brings together project partners to review progress, share scientific and technical insights, and strengthen collaboration across disciplines and institutions. After the first project year, the meeting provides a platform to present key results, discuss challenges, and align methodologies, data integration, and next steps for the coming project phase.

Set within the broader transition toward integrated and policy-relevant ocean observing systems, the meeting also addresses the evolving EU ocean observation framework. A dedicated panel discussion (7 September) will explore how initiatives such as OceanEye support scalable, coordinated ocean observation in line with BioGeoSea’s mission.

In addition, the BioGeoSea General Assembly will also take place during the annual meeting (10 September).

Format

Plenary talks (hybrid) · Panel discussions (hybrid) · Group Meetings · Poster session ·  · Networking
