Episode 5 - January 2024. In this edition Head of Partnerships Steve Hall first talks to Jamie McMichael-Phillips, Project Director of Seabed 2030. Jamie wishes listeners Happy New Year, and describes how Seabed 2030 will take forward our workplan in 2024, including our presence at the Ocean Decade Conference in Barcelona scheduled for April. Second interview is with Louis Demargne, who is on Secondment from our industry partner Fugro to the Decade Coordination Unit of UNESCO's Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission. Louis explains the role of the DCU, how he's been tasked to grow links with industry so that the global ocean science community can benefit from access to the data that industry gathers at sea, and how the DCU is working with Seabed 2030 to facilitate access to seabed mapping data that has hitherto often remained locked away as 'commercial in confidence'.We'll be back in February 2024 for episode 6 - contact Steve Hall partnerships@seabed2030.org with questions, feedback or offers to be featured on a future episode.
