Data Approach & Investment Intelligence

---

At the United Nations  Ocean Conference in Nice, France, we supported UBPP sidebar event, focused on realizing sustainable  investment into a regenerative Blue Pacific Economy.

Our  session highlighted regional leadership and innovative finance  strategies aligned with Pacific priorities—from high seas cooperation to  terrestrial and near-shore stewardship.

Pacific  nations have stepped forward with a unified commitment: 100%  sustainable ocean stewardship that centers Pacific communities — and a  clear call for collaboration from global allies to make it happen.

At the Blue Economy & Finance Forum in Monaco, we set the stage UBPP fit-for-purpose financing in the Pacific in our sidebar event. 

It was great to receive support from Pacific region Presidents, Ministers, and UN Ambassadors for our unprecedented approach that allows funding to be Pacific-led instead of donor-driven. 

Big Ocean States, when joined in one voice, yield a tremendous amount of power. 

Pacific Pipeline is Pacific Economics's non-profit arm. We create pipelines across the Pacific regarding investments and workforce development for Pacific Islands. 

Our team held a successful public engagement on identifying negative foreign investment in Palau. We will be hosting a second public engagement on strengthening institutions and promoting positive investment in February.

Pacific Economics with RARE and The Pacific Community (SPC) hosted the American Territories and Micronesian countries to further co-design fit-for-purpose financing at Ka Waiwai Collective in Honolulu, Hawaii.

Pacific Economics had the pleasure of serving as the Finance and Governance Expert Consultant Group for the first Unlocking Blue Pacific Prosperity Co-Design Sprint in Suva, Fiji. The Sprint convened high ministers, scientists, and expert thought leaders from 16 different countries and 4 CROP agencies across the Pacific to engage in a co-design process that would set the foundation for the bold vision set across by Pacific leaders in the 2050 Strategy for the Blue Pacific Continent: to protect, manage, and rejuvenate our land and ocean systems sustained by fit-for-purpose financing. 

Our co-founder, Jarod Baker, spoke at the National Defense University emphasizing the use of competitive intelligence when investing in the Pacific. Competitive Intelligence allows our clients to invest in the Pacific with eyes wide open when identifying and mitigating risks. We do the right work in the right way to serve our Pacific Community.

Our senior governance advisors and author of the the 2050 Strategy for the Blue Pacific Continent added his expertise at the Unlocking Blue Pacific Prosperity. A financial governance pathway allows us to identify how to bring unique financing mechanisms to the Pacific. 

Pacific Economics supports the United Nations Strategic Development Goals. We had the rare opportunity to tour the Peace Boat and discuss climate change, climate finance, and workforce development across the Pacific.
