Foundation 2 Blade is the industry’s most comprehensive training program for businesses who are ready to take advantage of opportunities in the offshore wind industry. Over the course of multiple sessions, you will gain the tools, resources, and industry connections that prepare your business to successfully enter the offshore wind supply chain.
Because of the industry’s size and complexity, offshore wind requires the work of many diverse business sectors. The opportunities are growing, but it can be difficult to enter the industry on your own. The time and resources needed to successfully enter the market often costs businesses hundreds of expensive consulting hours. Enrolling in Foundation 2 Blade greatly reduces your research and onboarding costs and helps you break into the market by answering three critical questions:
- Where do I fit in the supply chain?
- How do I enter the market?
- Who do I need to connect with in the industry?
