Your sponsorship of the conference will send a clear signal that the Arctic is your company’s niche, and that you are involved in development projects in the region. Your company’s image will be linked in the minds of the participants with genuine knowledge and expertise in the Arctic, and you will be able to demonstrate how to operate there and build a success story.

All of our readers should consider putting Inuvik on their ‘bucket lists’! Try the surf and turf in a local restaurant: Arctic Char & Musk Ox!

What Arctic investor would wish to miss this conference? Your publisher had the pleasure of chairing the 2002 gas pipeline portion of this conference–now a technology conference. It is good to see Inuvik recognize the reality of Shale Oil And Gas competition–as it begins to refashion its challenged economy by reinventing itself. How much has changed since gas pipelines were the major issues! We wonder if Alaska’s governor will similarly recognize that old worlds ultimately give way to new ones! -dh
