The European Commission published its 2025 EU Blue Economy Report. The report presents the economic performance of the EU blue economy sectors and provides estimations of their economic performance.
It shows that the EU blue economy is on an upward trajectory, having generally recovered from the COVID-19 crisis. In 2022, it directly employed 4.82 million people, generated nearly €890 billion in turnover and accounted for €250.7 billion in gross value added (GVA). Estimates suggest that the EU blue economy sectors continued to grow in 2023, contributing €263 billion to the EU GVA and employing 4.88 million persons.
