A pre-season "Irish Marine Trade Networking Event” hosted by The Irish Marine Federation (IMF) will occur this February at Dun Laoghaire Harbour, Co Dublin.
Designed as a networking opportunity to connect marine businesses with the renewable energy sector, IMF Chairman Gerry Salmon states that the event will provide information on training courses and access routes to funding in the blue economy sector.
The Irish Marine Federation is the national organisation representing the commercial and leisure sectors of the marine industry in Ireland.
In a busy opening to 2025 for the marine trade, the federation has just returned from Europe's biggest boat show at Boot Dusseldorf in Germany with some buoyant order books, and where details of February's networking event were finalised.
As Afloat reported previously, around 40 representatives from industry, government and educational institutions came together in Dun Laoghaire last November to share insights on how Ireland can better support the offshore wind supply chain.
Achieving Ireland's 2050 offshore wind energy targets could bring at least €38 billion to the Irish economy, according to a new report launched at the. 2024 Wind Energy Ireland's Annual Conference in Dublin on 29th January 2024.
The "Irish Marine Trade Networking Event” hosted by The Irish Marine Federation (IMF) will occur on Friday, 21st February, at 2 pm at Dun Laoghaire Harbour.
