Bermuda is committed to sustainably develop the island's blue economy. The Bermuda Ocean Prosperity Programme plans to manage and improve ocean industries like fishing and tourism while at the same time preserving 90,000 km² of Bermuda’s waters in fully protective areas by 2022.
Bermuda is driving plans to develop a subsea telecommunications corridor. While the island already hosts three cables, Bermuda’s location creates a logical stopover for cables between the Americas, Western Europe and Africa. New legislation has been passed to facilitate the industry's development.
Investors are showing clear confidence in Bermuda's tourism product, a key pillar of the economy. To facilitate further investment into the island's infrastructure, specific legislation means new hotel developments are subject to tax incentives and can take advantage of further relief.
Bermuda has decades of involvement in the global space and satellite industry with leading companies having domiciled on-island. The focus is now on advancing space insurance, international spectrum regulation, space sustainability, small satellites, and earth station regulations.
Bermuda's first Integrated Resource Plan outlines the approach for the island's energy requirements over the next 20 years. Opportunities exist for companies to contribute to a future where 85% of the island’s electricity supply is generated from renewable sources by 2035.
