- New relationships with peers, clients, and suppliers,
- A strategic perspective on the challenges and opportunities facing offshore construction, and how IMCA is leading the industry’s response.
The programme will bring together our core operational pillars, starting with the trusted technical content that IMCA is known for across its core areas of expertise, including diving, dynamic positioning, ROV, survey, safety and security, and lifting and rigging.
Sessions on People will focus on mental health, skills, and IMCA initiatives to support early career professionals and attract the next generation to the offshore industry.
