For Navigate 2026 Nordic Maritime Expo, Dr. Drake joins a distinguished moderator lineup that will guide discussions across the event's most important themes.

"After meeting Lisa during London International Shipping Week 2025, it was immediately clear to me that our paths would have to join.

Celebrating the World Oceans Day
"The oceans are critical to life on our planet—from controlling Earth's climate to producing food and jobs to support economies—making our stewardship of it all the more urgent. That said, it is an honor to contribute to ocean health by addressing environmental challenges facing the global shipping industry. Over the course of my career, I have done this from positions in academia, the U.S. Navy, and the private sector using science-based, practicable solutions."
— Dr. Lisa Drake
