We just wrapped up our 2024 COPRI Fall conference, and what a fantastic experience it was! From insightful technical sessions to vibrant networking opportunities, this event brought together professionals from across the industry, eager to share knowledge and make meaningful connections. One of the highlights this year was hosting our very first Women in Maritime Panel. It was inspiring to see such incredible women leading the way and showcasing the pivotal role they play in shaping the future of maritime engineering and sciences. Their insights added immense value to the discussions, and we’re excited to continue supporting diversity in our field. A special thanks to our sponsors Jacobs, Halff, AECOM, Black & Veatch and Stantec —your support made this conference possible and helped us create an unforgettable experience for everyone involved. Here’s to many more successful COPRI events ahead!
