Pacific Marine Expo delivers a robust lineup of free, high-value education sessions designed to inform, connect, and advance the commercial fishing and marine industries. Open to all attendees and exhibitors at no additional cost, the program features timely insights on marine safety, business operations, regulatory developments, technical innovation, and the evolving blue economy.
Built to meet the real-world needs of industry professionals, the Education Program provides actionable updates, expert perspectives, and opportunities for meaningful discussion and networking with peers across the maritime sector.
To better serve our diverse audience, Pacific Marine Expo offers two distinct education platforms:
Main Stage
Main Stage sessions spotlight high-impact panel discussions and presentations focused on the issues that matter most to the commercial fishing community. These sessions are designed to spark conversation, share big-picture insights, and highlight industry leadership.
Expo Classroom
Classroom sessions explore a wider range of topics across the blue economy through presentations, case studies, demonstrations, and interactive roundtable discussions. This format supports deeper dives, practical learning, and collaborative exchange.
Presenters may indicate a preferred format during submission; however, final placement will be determined to best support overall program balance and audience engagement.
