Following the partnership announced in January 2021, EBI and The SeaCleaners will hold the webinar “Harnessing the potential of recreational boating against marine litter” on 19 May. The webinar will be an opportunity for boating industry stakeholders to discuss what role recreational boating can play in tackling marine pollution. The event will take place on the occasion of the 2021 European Maritime Day, an excellent chance for the European community to engage with maritime affairs and discuss potential developments.

Speaking at the event will be: Yvan Bourgnon, President and founder of The SeaCleaners; Frédéric Silvert, Technical Director at The SeaCleaners; Andreea Strachinescu, Head of Unit for Maritime Innovation, Marine Knowledge and Investment in the European Commission’s Directorate-General for Maritime Affairs and Fisheries. EBI Secretary-General Philip Easthill and Valérie Amant, Director of Communications at The SeaCleaners, will then present diverse opportunities for support and involvement in The SeaCleaners’ mission.

The webinar is free and open to all participants, and it will take place on 19 May from 11:00 to 12:00.
