Big Blue Conference is the Cape Cod Blue Economy Foundation's annual industry conference curated to spark conversations and inspire actions relevant to the vitality of Cape Cod and the surrounding Blue Economy. New for 2026: we're partnering with the Cape Cod Climate Change Collaborative to bring you “Green Tomorrow” on Day 2 of Big Blue. Green Tomorrow will focus on climate impacts, mitigation and action across our blue regions.

Building on learnings from past sessions, this is for employers ready to take the next step. We’ll focus on practical, near-term strategies (6–12 months) that can be implemented in partnership with regional organizations to strengthen your workforce.
