The WOW Summit will feature speakers, resources, and contacts from across Louisiana and the United States. Learn about contracts in Coastal Restoration and Disaster Recovery. Preserve your heritage by expanding your opportunity to make more money. Sign up to be on the list for jobs in Coastal Restoration and Disaster Recovery. Learn how you can make money in your off time with Eco-tourism. Visit the WOW Summit on October 21st to sign up and learn all this and more! Please join us... Free and open to the public! This is a great opportunity for everyone involved in the seafood industry. The SLC has partnered with the St. Bernard Economic Development Foundation, The Meraux Foundation, Nunez Community College and many others to help expand and improve our industry. Unlike events in the past, this is not to train our fishermen to learn a new occupation, it is to grow our industry and to make it more profitable. You will be the first to sign up to be on the list for future disaster recovery and coastal restoration jobs during your off-season. Provide input on the complications that need to be addressed in this area, so we can keep those jobs local. Make partnerships with those in the fast growing eco and adventure tourism business. Get information on insurance and other new programs that may help your current business. This event isn't only for those already in the seafood industry. If you are interested in Eco or Adventure Tourism or Coastal Restoration, this is the place to start. Come explore the best kept secret in Louisiana - St. Bernard Parish. Just 8 miles from the French Quarter. Take your idea from concept to business and connect with like-minded people!
