April 28, 2024 — Re-envisioning the fishing industry to make it more sustainable and environmentally friendly. It’s a movement that started in Iceland. And now, it has inspired a similar collaboration here in New England.
The New England Ocean Cluster in Portland, Maine is trying to harness the wonders of the ocean and power the blue economy.
It was spawned by Patrick and Janeen Arnold after a visit to Iceland.
“We found at the Iceland Ocean Cluster something new, something novel,” says Arnold. “An energy where people were sharing principles and values in business.”
The Ocean Cluster brings people with common goals together to spark innovation.
