Geothermal resources aren’t just for hot springs. One farm in Buhl, formerly Onsen Farm and now under new management, is taking advantage of the geothermal resources in the area.
Virtual conferences have become the new normal in the year 2020. If you haven't already heard, for this year's annual meeting we made the decision to join the ranks of those who have moved from the convention hall to the Internet. Most of us have probably been a part of some sort of virtual event before in one way or another, but for those of us who have not, the whole concept can be slightly intimidating and overwhelming.
GRC always puts our members and the geothermal community at the center of every decision that we make, and we want to ensure everyone that we're here to help. That is why we have created a FREE Virtual Experience Webinar to give attendees a sneak peek into the digital platform GRC will be using for the 2020 Virtual Annual Meeting & Expo!
The webinar will take place on Wednesday, September 30, 2020, at 11:00 AM PT and will provide a deep-dive demonstration on the ins-and-outs of how to use the platform, utilize special features like 1-2-1 facetime opportunities and live chat rooms, and how to interact with the speakers, exhibitors, sponsors, and other attendees.
The webinar will also navigate through the interactive Expo Hall - which is built on a cutting-edge video game platform! At the end of this live webinar, there will be a Q&A session, so all of your questions will be answered.
This webinar is perfect for those who have already registered for the GRC Virtual Annual Meeting & Expo and those who have not yet registered but have a general curiosity about the Annual Meeting. If you are hesitant about attending the meeting because of the new digital format, we highly encourage you to sign up for this webinar that will hopefully but your mind at ease.
