Origins
For Blue started as an inquiry into the future health of the Indian Ocean and WA's Economy. Phase 1 of For Blue was research conducted in 2019 to find strategic opportunities that could increase ocean health, human wealth, and leveraged WA's existing natural and social assets.
The research and subsequent briefings engaged with a range of marine research institutions, peak industry bodies, international governments and elders of WA's Blue Economy. Their response the briefings and launch were so positive that a company was formed in early 2020 to take some of the most popular ideas forward, actualise the vision and capitalise on the opportunities.
The form and focus of what For Blue does is intended to evolve, yet always aligned with the mission and purpose.
