Placentia Bay Industrial Showcase (PBIS) highlights the many Industrial Developments and innovative projects taking place in the Placentia Bay region of our province. This Conference & Trade Show takes place at Unity PARC Arena, in Placentia, NL and has become a major event since its inception over 25 years ago.

The show is focused on embracing all industries taking place in the bay, including oil & gas, mining, green energy, tourism, ocean protection, shipping, fishing & aquaculture, technology development and more!

PBIS Conference and Trade Show greatly benefits the business community of our region, not only economically, but it also gives them an opportunity to network with the major players involved in industry, in an attempt to promote partnerships that can be quite valuable to participants.

Some of the projects include: West White Rose Project at Argentia; Vale’s Nickel Processing Plant at Long Harbour; The Braya Renewable Fuels project at Come by Chance; Grieg Seafarm Aquaculture project at Marystown and other sites in Placentia Bay; the Canada Fluorspar Mine at St. Lawrence; ongoing worksites at Argentia, like Eimskip, A. Harvey and Company Ltd, Marine Atlantic & Nalcor; Tourism Activities in the region, and more. These projects, combined with others on the horizon, are providing major opportunities for our economy, businesses, and workforce.

The PBIS Conference & Tradeshow also showcases the vast richness of our culture and our region, especially to those visiting and working in relation to the various industries that operate here.
