Innovation is critical for the evolution of the supply chain industry and having spaces to create new things matters now more than ever. We recently hosted Crowley's 2023 Innovation Day Open House in Jacksonville, where our people showcased various projects leveraging technology, sustainability and other topics among employee-led teams. The event also celebrated the work of participants from Crowley's University of North Florida Innovation Lab Cohorts 1 and 2.
Crowley's BRIDGE employee resource group continues its commitment to Englewood High School in Jacksonville, Fla., through our ongoing partnership with Big Brothers Big Sisters of Northeast Florida and the Beyond School Walls program. Our latest session focused on financial literacy, and the discussion covered essential topics that will be invaluable and crucial in supporting the students career advancement. By providing mentorship and education on topics like financial literacy, we can help upcoming young talent to navigate the complexities of the financial world and create a path toward financial stability, equity and success.

Developers have plans to bring over 11,000 MW of offshore wind online by 2026. This includes 13 offshore wind projects in U.S. waters. As a turnkey wind services provider, we are technically and functionally prepped to partner from shore to sea. Our team of experts combines decades of project management and engineering; port operations and terminaling services; maritime prowess; and logistics expertise to marshal or develop the appropriate equipment, personnel/crew and materials from the supply chains, and deliver them to the right place in time for deployment.
We reached a Right of First Refusal agreement with the Greater Lafourche Port Commission to explore creating an offshore wind terminal at Port Fourchon, Louisiana. “We look forward to working with the Port Commission to consider the next steps in serving the wind energy needs and goals of Port Fourchon and its communities,” said Bob Karl, senior vice president and general manager, Crowley Wind Services.
