You are looking for a platform for continuous communication, exchange of experience, joint project development and implementation within blue bioeconomy in the Baltics?
Do you want to implement or support an initiative within the blue bioeconomy within the Baltic Sea Region?
The SUBMARINER network is a unique, non-profit platform that brings together actors from the whole Baltic Sea Region to actively promote and support innovative and sustainable uses of marine resources.
We welcome all types of actors; e.g.
As we are a bottom-up governed and financed network, we generally work through a annual membership process. There are two membership options: full membership and associate membership.
Anyone can become an associate member and have access to project development, communication and dissemination activities. Full members pay more, but also gain more as they are part of our executive board, with their interests being prioritized in all SUBMARNER activities. Clusters may join as full members and thus gain automatic access for their own members to all SUBMARINER benefits.
Full members are charged 7,500 €/year | |
Associate membership application |
Associate Members are normally charged 1000 €/year. In case of participation in one or more financed SUBMARINER projects; associate members will be charged automatically by 1000 €/year extra (= 2,000€ in total, instead of 1,000€). In case of projects requiring co-finance, the rate may be subject to change in order to cover the co-finance necessary for the SUBMARINER secretariat, and this will be clearly communicated in advance to avoid confusion. |
Associate membership for Start-ups |
Startups are charged 300€ for an associate membership. All associate membership benefits are included in the reduced fee, as well as access to the Accelerator services, if applicable (see further down for information on the Accelerator services. |
(website, newsletters, social media, SUBMARINER info-stands, etc)

The Mentoring and Accelerator for Blue Growth is one of SUBMARINER Networks’ key service to support and guide young blue tech companies and actors. Start-ups, spin-offs, SMEs – but also academic institutions, students and others come to the SUBMARINER Network for guidance with the development of new products or services (= we call them cases).
As part of our joint mission, all Accelerator mentors offer their labs, brains, resources, expertise and facilities to further advance the next generation of blue bioeconomy innovations in the Baltic. In a collaborative spirit, mentors offer this initial mentoring on a voluntary basis free of charge (up to the limit they can).
Mentors are individuals – some of them coming from our SUBMARINER members’ institutions; others joining on individual basis. Those, who join on individual basis, can do so FREE OF CHARGE; but are asked to participate in our initial mentors’ training (2h online) and subsequently sign a ‘mentors’ agreement. You will be asked once a year on whether you want to renew your mentors’ offer.

The working groups (WGs) are internal SUBMARINER projects that run outside the boundaries of project funding frameworks. The WGs have a bottom up agenda guided by the the SUBMARINER Roadmap recommendations and the interests of the SUBMARINER Network members. The WGs are administrated by the SUBMARINER Network secretariat, they have distinctive activities and outputs, while the WG organise frequent meetings (physical or virtual), that are also open to non-members.
