HOW DOES IT WORK?
Participant Journey Map
The multi-award winning Gas Fest is a unique ‘for industry, by industry’ platform that convenes leaders, policymakers, experts, stakeholders and influencers across the fuel value system to explore the role of gas as a marine fuel in the transition towards a carbon neutral future.
With 100% of previous participants agreeing it's "not just another Gas event", this 'by-invitation-only' industry gathering engages participants on a unique journey of discovery and collaboration.
In a post-Covid world, Gas Fest will be an important platform to explore drivers, enablers and issues impacting the marine fuel mix at large, as well as defining and articulating the role of gas as a a marine fuel in achieving the IMO 2050 targets.
Methodology
Acknowledging the combined value of experience and diversity of views that make up Gas Fest participants, we will employ a uniquely engaging methodology to get the most out of our two days together. With a combination of keynotes, working groups, chat rooms and solution teams we will use graphical scribing and moving walls to ensure everyone has the possibility to contribute to a more sustainable maritime future. The 'Fest' in Gas Fest also means we plan to have fun while we solve the most complex challenges facing our industry!
Sustainability + Transparency
Gas Fest is about gathering the right industry stakeholders to collectively lead the way toward a greener future. As industry experts, all attendees are in pivotal positions to do something about the state of our planet.
