We invite you to participate in the St. George’s Rubis Marine Expo 2022 being held on Sunday, April 24th from 11am to 6pm. Building on the success of the last four events, this year’s event will be the best one yet!
RUBiS, The Bermuda Economic Development Corporation, along with a group of St. George’s Stakeholders continue to work tirelessly to ensure that the Marine Expo is an annual success. Our mission is to develop a family-friendly event that promotes opportunities, showcases technology, celebrates the sports and honors the history of Bermuda’s Maritime environment.
We recognize that the maritime industry is an untapped resource that Bermuda is primed to take advantage of. The Marine Expo has become a signature event that creates opportunities for the BEDC to partner with local organizations and businesses to provide the public and industry stakeholders with exposure and access to educational information. While we will be working on the final line up of participants, we can confirm that the event will include:
- At least 70 businesses, vendors and organizations participating
- Over 2500 visitors
This event has grown in popularity and not only become a great place to showcase your company, but also to support the maritime industry and the town of St. George.
We look forward to your participation to help showcase your business /organization at the RUBiS Marine Expo. For further information, please refer to the Vendor / Participation Guidelines and application or contact us at BEDC.
