The Marine Technology Society, in partnership with Rhode Island Sea Grant and the University of Rhode Island (URI), and in collaboration with the Responsible Offshore Science Alliance (ROSA) and the Northeast Regional Ocean Council (NROC), invites you to save the date for the Fisheries & Benthic Monitoring TechSurge.
This focused, two-day TechSurge will convene experts from across sectors to explore advancements in monitoring technologies and practices that support responsible offshore development.
The TechSurge will feature a combination of curated panels, an open call for abstracts, and the Tech Café—an interactive exhibit hall showcasing innovative technologies through desktop demonstrations, along with lightning talks from both industry and student participants.
Please mark your calendars for October 8-9, 2025—additional information, including registration details, abstract submissions, and sponsorship opportunities, will be shared soon. To explore sponsorship and partnership opportunities, kindly contact mtsevents@mtsociety.org.
