The blooloop 50 Zoo & Aquarium Influencer List 2023
The best zoos and aquariums function as "arks" and are deeply involved with conservation. They help repair damaged or degraded ecosystems, protect endangered species and leverage their position of authority and trust to create impactful educational programs and campaigns.
With animals in the wild facing unprecedented challenges – from loss of habitat and the impact of climate change to the illicit wildlife trade – the role of the modern zoo and aquarium as a leading voice in conservation and education is perhaps more important than ever.
This second year of the blooloop 50 Zoo & Aquarium Influencer List is launched in association with our good friends at PGAV, who are a global leader in the planning and design of unique destinations.
The list will highlight 50 key individuals whose work has made a real impact. The blooloop 50 Zoo & Aquarium Influencer List was revealed live in a webinar, now on demand. Watch by registering for free here.
blooloop 50 Influencers can now claim digital badges to add to their LinkedIn profiles. Just email us at events@blooloop.com to find out more.
