Thursday 16th June 2022
The scope of the Green Tech Boat Show has expanded this year to incorporate a new and exciting trade element. Owing to collaboration between MDL and Maritime UK South West, the first day of this year’s show will feature the Clean Marine Innovation Showcase, a unique forum for government, researchers and businesses working towards a cleaner marine environment to come together to exchange ideas, highlight new innovations and network with likeminded organisations.
Ideal for both investors and innovators, the showcase will be invitation only and hosted at the Innovation Hub. See plan below for location.
The Clean Marine Innovation Showcase will include the following:
- UK Government strategy
- Innovation funding
- Business support
- Case studies from businesses developing cutting edge solutions to cleaning the sector
- Break out sessions covering topics including: cleaner antifoul and coatings, recycling, commercial modelling
- Physical and in-water tech demos
- Space for up to 80 exhibitors with commercially available solutions
