SUMMARY:MRC Mission to 2023 International Partnering Forum (IPF) on Offshore Wind - March 28-30 in Baltimore\, Maryland
DESCRIPTION:Marine Renewables Canada (MRC) is leading a mission to the 2023 International Offshore Wind Partnering Forum (IPF)\, taking place this March 28-30 in Baltimore\, Maryland. \nIPF is the premiere offshore wind energy conference in North America\, hosted by the Business Network for Offshore Wind. The US offshore wind industry is growing and so are the opportunities to get involved. IPF is an excellent opportunity for Canadian businesses and organizations to connect with global leaders and businesses in the supply chain\, participate in multiple networking opportunities\, and get timely and relevant updates on the industry\, from technology and policy\, to safety and siting. \nMRC is leading this mission to help its members and Canadian companies pursue opportunities in the US offshore wind supply chain\, profile capabilities and strengths\, and build relationships that assist with international business development efforts. \nRegistration to participate in this mission is now open – scroll down for the outline of mission benefits/activities and the registration link. \nFunding & Travel Restrictions/Advisories\nMRC has secured funding for this mission’s activities (booth\, delegate passes for mission participants\, briefing session etc.) but this funding does not cover travel costs (see below for more on that).  Because this funding is for an activity that requires travel outside of Canada You should check the Government of Canada’s Travel Advice and Advisories before travelling and fully understand the risks and requirements involved as they can change quickly. \n\nTravel funding for companies – MRC has secured partial travel funding through Global Affairs Canada for MRC member companies (must be a Canadian company – one per company) participating in this mission.
