IMCA’s Europe & Africa Regional Meeting returns to Aberdeen on Thursday 3 October 2024.

IMCA’s regular regional meetings bring our Members together to discuss industry issues, trends, and developments, explore the latest from IMCA’s technical teams, and offer a great opportunity to meet colleagues from across the industry.

All sessions are highly interactive with plenty of opportunity for Q&A and audience interaction via Slido.

As with previous meetings, attendees will hear from our Technical team. From IMCA, Mary Ntamark, Technical Adviser – Environmental Sustainability will be in attendance. Also joining on the day will be David Bloom, Director for Client Engagement – Europe & Africa.

The Regional Meeting takes place at Global Underwater Hub (GUH) in Aberdeen. Places are free to anyone working for an IMCA Member; however, they are extremely limited so please book early to avoid disappointment.

This IMCA event has now reached capacity and is full.
