Who are we?

ABOUT US

Operating since 1998, Blueshift offers corporate advisory, management, and technical consulting services tailored to the unique challenges of the blue economy sectors.​

Our multi-disciplinary expertise supports clients across traditional, new, and emerging industries, as well as services and activities connected to marine and aquatic environments.

Most recently we have been working in the fast-evolving taxonomies of blue carbon, carbon neutrality, environmental impact assessment, natural capital accounting, environmental markets, and sustainable finance.
