The Innovation and Entrepreneurship Symposium is an excellent opportunity for operators, oilfield service companies, investors, entrepreneurs, and innovators to learn about new innovations from startup organizations

It’s one of the premier platforms that allows young companies to learn from industry experts and gain valuable insights about Voice of the Customer, starting a business, understanding commercialization in a risk-averse industry, attracting investors, and more.

Additionally, it provides an excellent opportunity for a select few to showcase their concepts/companies in the Shark Tank, and receive feedback from peers, investors and potential clients.

 

If you are:

  • An operator, oilfield service company, investor, entrepreneur, or innovator who wants to stay on the cutting edge of innovation - Add this event to your calendar
  • A startup and would like to participate in the Shark Tank - applications closed
