Festa, the Icelandic Ocean Cluster & Circular Cluster invite you to a joint event. The event is intended for entrepreneurs, investors, and other interested parties who wish to dive deeper into the discussion on sustainability-related investments. Our goal is to examine whether and how investors weigh and consider sustainability in their decision-making and whether their focus is more on financial gain rather than on sustainability ♻️
With a particular emphasis on the Icelandic context and the Blue Economy, the workshop will seek answers to whether it is possible to increase investors' interest in sustainable investments.
The Iceland Ocean Cluster is a world leader in supporting, connecting, incubating, investing, and growing startups that create value from material formerly considered waste.

Festa - Sustainability Center has almost 200 members, which are a combination of Iceland's biggest to smallest companies, in addition to public organizations, ministries, universities, the City of Reykjavik and the Central Bank of Iceland. Festa is a catalyst for change and a bridge builder with focus on sustainability. Our goal is to support companies and organizations to lead by example.
The Circularity Cluster is a support network of companies operating in the spirit of the circular economy. The intention of the cluster is to speed up the introduction of a circular economy in Iceland by removing the obstacles that may exist and promoting what is done well.
