We’ll start the day with a number of interesting pitches on the design of multi-use offshore platforms, by the Blue Science & Technology Summer Training students (BlueS&T).
During a panel debate, moderated by Peter Scheijgrond from MET-Support, experienced professionals from the offshore industry, policy-makers and researchers will discuss the challenges and opportunities for offshore renewable energy.
Confirmed panel members so far: DEME Group, Jan De Nul, DG MARE, Teamwork Technology and UGent.
The debate will be followed by the graduation ceremony of the BlueS&T students and a matchmaking lunch.
