Make it Edinburgh

Edinburgh and the Marine Industry

From ocean energy to marine conservation, Edinburgh’s strengths in the marine sector are far reaching. Edinburgh is shaped by its coastline making it the ideal city for leading marine research and development. The city is home to leading research, top universities, innovative organisations and charities all working to protect and harness our shores.
