In its aim of "being something more" that an exhibition, and thanks to its innovative character, the NAVALIA 2012 organization will inaugurate next week the first edition of the Off-shore Day, that will be held the 4th of May in the Port of Vigo conference room. With this conference, organizers wants to make known the potential that shipyards and Galician ancillary industry have shown last years in this field. Marine wind energy has, according experts, a promising future over all in countries with high population density. In this sense, we would like to emphasize the conference given by the group from Vigo GB Dos Valor, about the new marine renewable energies, especially the wind marine. The call for papers had such a success that some companies will not participate because there will be no time enough.
