That’s a wrap! Many thanks to all who attended our MIIN in Limerick events on Thursday the 8th in the Clayton Hotel, Limerick City and Friday the 9th of June in the Foynes Yacht Club, Co. Limerick.
To start the week, MIIN exhibited at the OCEANS 2023 conference from Tuesday 6th to Thursday the 8th of June, with MIIN coordinator, Liam Curran, chairing a panel on Wednesday morning for Town Hall – Accelerating Technology Development to Address Climate Change: New Types of Partnerships and Funding.
On Thursday evening, following the close of the OCEANS 2023 conference, MIIN hosted a successful networking reception, which provided opportunities for attendees of the OCEANS 2023 Conference, to meet with both the domestic Irish marine industry capability and other international companies. MIIN welcomed over 80 attendees on the evening, with delegates from Canada, the United States, Spain and Singapore to name just a few. Attendees were welcomed by Marine Institute & Enterprise Ireland who support the network, and treated to some light refreshments, followed by some fantastic traditional Irish music from the University of Limerick.
Friday morning saw over 60 people join us for #MIINinLimerick event at Foynes Yacht Club, Co. Limerick. Attendees at the event got the opportunity to hear about the future development plans and vision for the region, as well as hear from innovative marine companies who operate in the region. The event also allowed for some excellent networking opportunities for our members and presenters/panelists.
