2020 Vision In 2020, the Irish marine sector will sell into specialised global and local markets in a dynamic, innovative and technologically driven manner, by means of strong industry research partnerships, a skilled workforce and a strategic capability that responds to markets and technology. It will be internationally recognised for its high quality marine environment and characterised by coherent policy and regulation.
Must Deliver Research Leading to: Growth Competitiveness New business opportunities Environmental Sustainability
Key Objectives 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. Increase the economic value of the indigenous marine sector New business start-ups in new industries that have yet to be developed e. g. Wave and tidal energy generation, Biotechnology, Environmental Goods and Services, ICT etc. Enable development to occur in compliance with the principles of environmental sustainability, whist improving our understanding of the marine environment; Build new marine related research capacity and capabilities to add to enhance our knowledge base and establish stronger third level industry links; Contribute to improvements in the development of public sector policy making, regulation and planning; Create new opportunities and increased economic activity in Ireland’s coastal communities related; and Develop greater co-operation between North and South by developing joint marine initiatives that benefit the island of Ireland.

• R&D and innovation deals with ‘future potential’ and ‘opportunity’ thus much of the information required to prioritise projects is at best uncertain and at worse very unreliable
Any 10 year planning period is one in which existing trends can be fostered, the seeds of future developments planted and dreams encouraged” Johnathan Liebenau, London School of Economics, April 2007.
