Our guest, Jim Hanlon, Founding CEO - Centre for Ocean Ventures & Entrepreneurship speaks about Halifax’s ties to the ocean sector and the expertise that powers it.

 

Canada's original ocean city has always made its fortunes from the sea. Even as the technology fueling this industry continues to evolve, what has not changed is the destination's commitment to remain on the forefront of what's possible.
