The SOS Voyage 2025 was designed as a transformational experience — a journey where global changemakers moved from summit to sea and turned insight into action. Sailing from San Francisco to San Diego aboard the tall ship Statsraad Lehmkuhl, participants became part of the working crew.

The SOS Voyage 2025 was designed as a transformational experience — a journey where global changemakers moved from summit to sea and turned insight into action. Sailing from San Francisco to San Diego aboard the tall ship Statsraad Lehmkuhl, participants became part of the working crew. They discovered what leadership looks like when practiced under real conditions: standing night watch, adjusting sails, hauling lines, keeping lookout, and relying on one another for safety and progress.

The Sustainable Ocean Solutions (SOS) Summit gathers global leaders, innovators, investors, scientists, and activists to accelerate ocean action through collaboration, capital, and technology.

Following the success of our inaugural summit in Bergen (2023), SOS 2025 connects the ocean community and Silicon Valley, building new bridges between science, policy, entrepreneurship, and investment. Together, we explore how technology, innovation, and storytelling can drive the systemic change needed to secure a sustainable ocean future.
