Get Involved with the Ocean Team

The St. Petersburg Ocean Team is the premier consortium for marine science and related research, education and entrepreneurship in the Southeast. The Team is comprised of over 20 complementary firms, government entities, and institutions that are located near one another, many in the St. Pete Innovation District, that draw advantages from their proximity as well as the similarities between their workforce and vendor needs.

Meetings for the Ocean Team will begin in June 2025. Reach out to Amber at apacetti@stpeteinnovationdistrict.com if you would like to be involved.
