5 GREAT REASONS TO ATTEND

1. This is the ONLY Wave Energy focused conference - Cutting edge Industry Insight!

Other events cater to either the entire renewable energy market or offshore renewables as a whole. This event is focused at addressing the core challenges relevant to Wave Energy alone! With exclusive case studies, product announcements and exceptional speakers - the 2nd Annual Wave Energy Summit offers you exceptional insight into the key business opportunities in wave energy.

With so many movers and shakers speaking at this event, you'll gain more insight in these 2 days than you could do from 2 months in the office! View the latest programme for the conference

2. Independent and Demand Led Approach - not an unstructured expo

The 2nd Wave Energy Summit is an independent and demand led event. We're not here to sell you a particular party-line, idea, piece of research or vendor solution. There is no hidden agenda – we've built this event on the foundation of extensive research with your peers and the result is simple: a comprehensive event built by people working in wave energy for people who continue to work in wave energy.

3. Focused and Practical Content

Each and every session exists to offer practical advice on the challenges you face. Practical and honest accounts will allow you to take away strategies ready to be implement immediately and provide you with a clear route map for development.

4. Genuinely Interactive Format - Working Group Discussions

Even with speakers of the highest caliber there is only so much you can take in from formal presentation. The 2nd Wave Energy Summit recognises this, and in addition to the finest presentations, you are able to ask the questions you need answers for, stimulate debate in areas you want to discuss and leave prepared to tackle the challenges you currently face.

That's why this year we've created the revolutionary Wave Energy Working Group Discussions. These discussions give you the opportunity to share concerns, issues and ideas with your developer colleagues and help shape the future of Wave energy. If you don't attend this event, you can't put your thoughts forward for the Working Group Discussions, or be part of the Wave Energy Action Group. Be smart and register your ticket today
