Research Poster Presentations and Speed Introductions
A core part of the work of Supergen ORE Hub is to support knowledge exchange within the sector and encourage new connections. To showcase the breadth of work across the community, all participants will be invited to introduce their work via a speed introduction at the Forum.
In addition, Early Career Researchers are asked to share their research via a poster presentation, providing an opportunity to explore emerging research in more depth.
Participation overview:
Early Career Researchers are asked to:
- Present a poster
- Introduce their work through a speed introduction at the Forum.
From Industry:
- Warmly invited to submit an academic poster (optional)
- Introduce their work through a speed introduction at the Forum.
Posters
Posters will be displayed at the Forum and Annual Assembly. Participation offers:
- Constructive, impartial discussion of your work with peers
- Visibility within the wider offshore renewable energy community and opportunities for collaboration
- Researchers are eligible for poster prizes (first, second, and third), announced at the Annual Assembly
The posters at the Forum and Assembly are academic-style posters typically detailing a research project. Examples from previous years can be explored here. Please note that we are unable to display posters that promote business services.
