Blue Sky Maritime Coalition

'Through collaborative efforts with regulatory bodies, industry stakeholders, and technological innovators, the maritime sector can address the challenges and barriers to achieving decarbonization goals. By investing in advanced technologies, developing robust regulatory frameworks, and enhancing supply chain infrastructure, the industry can make significant strides towards a sustainable and environmentally friendly future.' We are proud to share Blue Sky's response to the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE)'s RFI on the Advanced Technology Vehicles Manufacturing Loan Program.

Those who work in heavy industry know that having all your permits and licenses is a must. But what about your neighbors? Many of us have neighborhoods, communities, and schools right next door to our port facilities. Those folks can give us (or deny us!) what’s called a “social license to operate.”  Join us on June 25 to learn more about this important topic including:  🔹 How to get – and renew – a social license to operate. 🔹 What to do when your “license” is revoked or at stake. 🔹 How third parties can be helpful to your ability to operate for decades to come. Blue Sky Maritime Coalition is pleased to have Kit Cole, Founder of Kit Cole Consulting, LLC, discuss "Why a Social License to Operate is No Longer an Option." Email Communications@BlueSky-Maritime.org for more info. Our monthly speaker series is 🔹exclusive🔹 to Blue Sky members.
