The Ocean Action Forum will take place at the Jeddah Hilton in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, on October 27 and 28, 2025.

With its location along the Arabian Gulf and Red Sea, Saudi Arabia is a leader in maritime sustainability. The Ocean Action Forum is a vibrant catalyst for revolutionary change as the Kingdom advances its Vision 2030 programme. The forum, which brings together environmental leaders, project owners, policymakers, and industry experts, aims to explore innovative solutions to protect marine ecosystems, develop strategic partnerships, and shed light on important industry trends and issues. Major aspects of marine sustainability and conservation will be the forum's main focus. Innovative methods for restoring marine ecosystems, such as seagrass beds, mangroves, and coral reefs, will be at the centre of the talks. An emphasis on sustainable fishing will be to conserve fish stocks and the livelihoods of communities that rely on them. In order to safeguard ocean health, the forum will present creative waste management strategies that tackle marine pollution, ranging from plastics and agricultural run-off to oil spills. Building climate resilience through reducing environmental impacts, assisting marine adaptation, and adapting to rising sea levels will also be a top priority, as will advancing sustainable maritime sectors like aquaculture, tourism, and renewable energy. Advanced ocean technologies, such as artificial intelligence (AI), robotics, and satellite surveillance, will be examined as essential instruments for furthering marine research and conservation initiatives. In order to promote cooperation and strategic communication, the event will involve important stakeholders, such as regulators, decision-makers, and industry pioneers. Along with creating meaningful partnerships to advance sustainable blue economy ideas for the future, participants will have the chance to learn about the most recent advancements in ocean technology, trash management, and marine conservation.
