Ocean Revive Showcases Coral Restoration Technology at Reef Futures

In December 2022, Ocean Revive had the privilege of participating in Reef Futures, the world’s leading conference on coral reef restoration and intervention science. Held in Key Largo, Florida, this event brought together top scientists, conservationists, engineers, and practitioners to explore bold new strategies for restoring the world’s most endangered ecosystems.

Our team showcased Ocean Revive’s modular BlueTech restoration tools — a scalable solution for coral gardening that’s designed to accelerate recovery and enhance reef resilience in a warming world.

What We Presented: Modular Tools for Scalable Reef Recovery

At Reef Futures 2022, Ocean Revive introduced attendees to our field-tested, modular coral restoration units, engineered to make reef restoration faster, more adaptable, and cost-effective across multiple marine environments. These tools are designed to:

• Accommodate diverse coral species -including heat-tolerant genotypes

• Be rapidly deployed at scale -minimising installation time and costs

• Withstand dynamic ocean conditions -ensuring long-term impact

• Support natural reef processes -including coral growth, settlement, and resilience

The modular design is particularly valuable for regions like the Red Sea, where natural thermal tolerance in coral populations offers hope for future-proofed reefs.

Global Collaboration for Reef Restoration Innovation

Events like Reef Futures play a critical role in shaping the future of reef science and restoration. They offer a space to:

• Share breakthroughs and lessons learned

• Foster collaboration across disciplines

• Align restoration strategies with climate realities

• Encourage innovation at scale

Ocean Revive’s participation not only amplified our mission but also allowed us to build new partnerships with restoration experts from the Caribbean, Pacific, and Indian Ocean regions — all working toward a shared goal of reef resilience.
