Verona Carter, VP of Public Affairs at New Fortress Energy said, "We are very proud to be playing a role in this huge transition and energy reform taking place to transform Jamaica’s energy landscape. We envision Jamaica becoming a regional hub for natural gas, and a global clean energy model. It is an exciting time for Jamaica with both the private and public sectors advancing the national agenda, which will further attract substantial investment opportunities for the country. We are thrilled to be a change agent sharing this milestone with the Jamaican people." JAMPRO's President Diane Edwards said she was thrilled that the company had signed on to be a JIF sponsor, stating that the Agency will highlight Energy as a key sector to promote for investment at the event.

We look forward to collaborating with them to further improve Jamaica's energy sector."
