The Commercial Marine Network, in partnership with The Workboat Association launch Series 4 of Get Set for Workboat 2050.
Series 4 continues to dive into the latest developments in innovation and technology in the workboat sector to assist vessel operators and commercial marine businesses to decarbonise. The series will tackle the theme of what technology can be adopted now - helping to support businesses with decision-making to increase efficiency, reduce OPEX costs, and progress in taking steps to achieve net zero.
In the all-new format, each online session will be split into shorter bitesize parts – giving delegates the opportunity to listen to speakers individually in a more time convenient way. Delegates also have the opportunity to take part in 2 live sessions in this next series!
