Join over 500 leaders shaping Canada’s marine renewables future at MRC 2025!

On November 12-14, a community of over 500 innovators, developers, policymakers, and supply chain leaders will come together in the heart of Halifax to chart the course for Canada’s marine renewable energy future. Our flagship annual event, the Marine Renewables Canada Conference & Exhibition, will once again be the place where opportunities are created, ideas take shape, and partnerships are forged. 

The program is shaping up to be one of our most dynamic yet – and we’re just getting started. While the agenda already features powerful sessions on offshore wind, tidal energy, Indigenous leadership, global market insights, and cutting-edge technology, we have more exciting speakers, activities, and announcements on the horizon.  

Why attend? 

Marine renewable energy is no longer a niche concept – it’s a critical pillar in global clean energy transition. Canada’s offshore wind potential, as well as tidal, wave, and current energy technologies, combined with our expertise in offshore industries, put us in a unique position to lead.  

But leadership doesn’t happen in isolation – it happens when we connect, collaborate, and share knowledge. 

MRC 2025 is designed to do just that. Over three days, you’ll engage in: 

  • International networking, connecting Canadian member companies with global leaders in marine renewables. 
  • High-impact plenaries and panels on market trends, technology innovation, transmission and infrastructure, workforce development, and policy alignment. 
  • Technical deep dives into topics such as seabed considerations, debunking myths about wildlife interactions, and off-grid energy solutions. 
  • Real conversations with decision-makers and industry veterans that can lead to tangible projects and partnerships. 

Whether you’re a developer seeking partners, a supplier looking for contracts, a policymaker exploring solutions, or an academic working on breakthrough research, you’ll find your people – and your opportunities – here. 

Opportunities for exhibitors and sponsors 

If you want your brand to stand out in Canada’s rapidly growing marine renewable energy market, there’s no better stage than MRC 2025. 

As an exhibitor, you’ll position your company at the heart of the action. The exhibition floor is where deals are made, connections are sparked, and innovations are showcased. With delegates from across Canada and around the world, your presence ensures you’re seen by the audiences that matter most – from project developers to government leaders to potential collaborators. 

As a sponsor, you’ll not only gain visibility, but you’ll be recognized as a leader committed to advancing marine renewable energy. Sponsorship allows you to align your brand with innovation, sustainability, and Canada’s clean energy transition. Plus, it sends a clear message that you’re investing in the growth of the sector – and the future of our oceans. 

Past sponsors have told us that their participation led to new contracts, expanded networks, and long-term partnerships. It’s not just about a logo on a banner – it’s about being part of the story we’re telling as a sector and the momentum we’re building together. 

A unique gathering in Halifax 

Halifax is more than just our host city – it’s part of the story. This vibrant coastal hub is a gateway to the Atlantic, a centre for ocean innovation, and home to a community that understands the power and potential of the sea. Our location offers the perfect setting for conversations about how Canada can harness its marine resources for sustainable growth, economic opportunity, and climate action. 

Between sessions, you’ll have the chance to experience Halifax’s maritime charm, from its waterfront boardwalk to its world-class seafood. And with the city’s strong connections to industry, academia, and government, you’ll be networking not just in the conference hall, but throughout the city. 

Join this moment – at a critical time  

With Nova Scotia set to launch its first call for offshore wind bids this fall, it’s a pivotal moment for companies, communities, and investors to position themselves to capture the opportunities ahead. MRC 2025 will be the place to gain timely insights, connect with decision-makers, and understand the policies, partnerships, and supply chain strategies that will define the next decade. 

Whether you attend as a delegate, showcase your work as an exhibitor, or lead as a sponsor, your participation matters. You’ll be part of a growing community that’s committed to innovation, collaboration, and building Canada’s clean energy future. 

The ocean of opportunity is here – let’s seize it together.
