WAEE February Meeting - Mercury Marine- SOLD OUT

Mercury Marine
Globally Sustainable Success

2.14.20: Registration is closed, as we are at capacity.  

We are proud to announce our February event will be held at Mercury Marine in Fond du Lac Wisconsin.

Mercury is a globally recognized leader in the manufacturing of high performance marine and mobility vehicles. How does that happen? How does a company grow from a single outboard engine in 1939 to an international sensation? In their own words “…We love the outdoors, We love engineering. And we love to go fast". You can make the case that their "love”, transcends just boats and motors. It is a part of a culture that drives learning, innovation, and agility.

Mercury has long understood the relationship between the products they produce, the lifestyle they promote, and the environment that is entrusted to us all. Early adopters of sustainable technologies and practices, Mercury Marine continues to work on becoming recognized one of the most environmentally and socially responsible manufacturing organizations here and abroad.

Join us, February 26^th,  for a presentation and a tour  at the Mercury Marine Global Headquarters and Manufacturing Facilities. Learn how Mercury has leveraged technology, culture, environmental and social responsibility, into success.
