The 2025 International Partnering Forum (IPF) will take place April 28 – May 1, at the Virginia Beach Convention Center in Virginia Beach, Virginia (USA). The IPF is the premier offshore wind energy conference in North America. Hosted by Oceantic Network, this event connects global leaders and businesses in the supply chain, offers unparalleled networking opportunities, and delivers breaking updates on the industry, from technology to policy.

Netherlands Pavilion larger than ever!

Holland Home of Wind Energy (HHWE) will organize a Netherlands Pavilion with a total floorspace of 1600sqft (~144 sqm) that you can join in two ways:

1. NEW! You can now join the NL Pavilion with your own booth (10x10sqft / ~3×3 sqm or 20×10 sqft / ~3×6 sqm) in the Netherlands pavilion. Please see an impression of the expected booth below.
2. You can also join the NL Lounge (shared booth) with a poster panel participation, like in previous years. We secured a booth space of 54sqm. The NL Lounge is co-organized by the Consulate General in New York and the Netherlands Enterprise Agency (RVO).

The NL Pavilion will be located at a central location along the main isle, close to most facilities. Please see the location of the NL Pavilion here. Booth numbers: 1627, 1633, 1727 and 1733. Final booths depend on the number of participants.

The above images give an indication of the design. Final design might differ from this.

Participation with your own booth in the NL Pavilion

Participation includes the following:

• Two complimentary conference tickets for IPF 2025 per 10×10 sqft or 10×20 sqft booth;
• Furnished 10×10 sqft booth with booth construction: table, two chairs, storage desk with your logo/graphic, brochure rack, bin and your corporate graphic (10×10 ft.) on the backwall of the booth for corporate exposure;
• Electricity and power point;
• Customized Netherlands and wind and water works design (a.o. orange carpet, hanging banner above the pavilion and graphics);
• Support in preparing your participation before, during and after IPF 2025;
• Participation in all conference sessions, poster sessions and WindMatch (B2B);
• Your company included in the (online) IPF exhibitor directory;
• Shared meeting room, available during show hours (TBC, depending on availability with organizer);
• Option to rent additional furniture and/or TV screen via out booth construction against additional costs;

For comparison: a 10×10 sqft booth sold by IPF does not have booth construction (but the pipe and drape system), and comes without any corporate graphics, furniture, electricity & power outlets, and additional promotion and NL services.
