SeaCras Returns from Climate Week NYC: Turning Sustainability from Words into Action
We came to New York City for Climate Week not just to be seen. We came to listen, question, and contribute to the global conversation on climate action. And as one of the most influential gatherings for sustainability leaders, innovators, and policymakers, Climate Week NYC offered a powerful platform to exchange ideas and push forward real solutions to environmental challenges.
This year, Climate Week NYC was held from September 21-28. The event takes place every year in partnership with the United Nations General Assembly and is run in coordination with the United Nations and the City of New York. We’re talking about the largest annual climate event of its kind, bringing together over 900 events and activities across the Big Apple!
For SeaCras, it was an opportunity to showcase how satellite-based data can redefine transparency in environmental monitoring — and make pollution visible, measurable, and actionable.
Because for us, sustainability isn’t a story you tell. It’s something you prove every single day through data, transparency, and action.
From the World Economic Forum’s events and private gatherings to major conferences like Techonomy, along with many side meetings and spontaneous exchanges, our CEO, Mario Špadina, joined conversations at the crossroads of technology, policymaking, and immediate impact.
Meanwhile, our Head of Communications, Ana Čupić, connected with United Nations Global Compact Network members at their Hub and attended the 8th Leaders on Purpose Summit, focused on leadership with more accountability — not just performative, but practical.

After an intense and inspiring week filled with meaningful discussions, new connections, and shared visions for a cleaner planet, our team has safely returned home — energised and ready to turn ideas into impact.
SeaCras remains committed to protecting our oceans and coastlines through science, technology, and collaboration. What we witnessed in New York reaffirmed our belief that measurable change starts with knowledge. And that knowledge should always be shared.
Also, it’s easy to forget how far we’ve come, until moments like this remind us. SeaCras started as a local idea and has grown global in just a few years.
Sharing our results and getting direct feedback on a global stage gives us what matters most: ideas, direction, and drive to push boundaries further. At least until next year, when we return to New York to show how much more we’ve grown.
