Thank you to everyone who made the first New York City Offshore Wind Immersion Week a huge success! Last week, 90 students from across New York City and 5 CTE programs got to learn about offshore wind from 8 developers and community partners before diving into interactive career exploration VR software for the Offshore Wind Industry. Vinci VR's mission is to provide local communities the resources they need to tap into growing opportunities; this is hopefully the first of many more Career Immersion Events to come! Please reach out if you want to participate or help in the next Immersion Event! Thank you to everyone who made this possible!
