A stand with a lot of sea value: "Love your ocean"

If you are looking for inspiration for your own commitment to protecting the seas, you will find it at the "Love your ocean" stand, which the Deutsche Meeresstiftung and Messe Düsseldorf jointly organized. Research activities are shown interactively here. Frank Schweikert, board member of the Deutsche Meeresstiftung, says: "The aim of our initiative is to win over water sports enthusiasts as pioneers and ambassadors for healthy seas and bodies of water and thus also to support sustainable ideas in the water sports industry." The 20-meter-long replica of a sperm whale hovers over the large stand in Hall 4 as an eye-catcher.
