Our vision is an ocean that will sustain future generations.

Our Mission

AltaSea at the Port of Los Angeles is dedicated to accelerating scientific collaboration, advancing an emerging blue economy through business innovation and job creation, and inspiring the next generation, all for a more sustainable, just and equitable world.

Our Vision

We will turn to the ocean to develop solutions for some of the planet’s most pressing challenges, such as climate change, energy supply and global food security – and prepare today’s generation of students for future jobs in science, technology, engineering, business and the ocean.

The AltaSea Campus

AltaSea is creating an urban, ocean-based campus at the Port of Los Angeles where ocean innovators work together. The cutting edge 400,000 square foot campus is built on a historic pier with unparalleled access to the deep ocean. Professionals and students that gather at AltaSea’s 35-acre site will enjoy a state-of-the-art facility that includes 4,100 feet of linear dock space, circulating seawater and marine life support systems throughout the facility, laboratories, research facilities and hands-on educational and job skills development areas.
