Abstract

The marine ecosystem, being both diverse and largely unexplored, presents a fertile ground for innovation and entrepreneurship. This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the opportunities available in marine entrepreneurship, focusing on both commercial and research-based avenues. On the commercial side, the review discusses sectors such as aquaculture, global transportation, and eco-tourism, highlighting the need for effective production methods and innovative strategies. In the realm of research-based entrepreneurship, the review explores areas like coral restoration, water desalination, and marine-based product development, emphasizing their potential for sustainable utilization of marine resources. The paper also identifies existing gaps and areas that require further innovation and research, thereby offering a roadmap for young researchers and entrepreneurs. The overarching goal is to promote selfreliance and contribute to the betterment of both nature and humanity through sustainable marine entrepreneurship.
