We begin by looking at where the market stands today in terms of its potential capacity, current state commitments and the project development pipeline. We discuss recent lease activity, the entry of major international companies into the US market, what that says about investor confidence and what it may mean for the industry\u2019s growth. We obviously talk about the IPF, the Network\u2019s International Partnering Forum which is just a few weeks away in New York, as well as other activities the Network has planned later this year. Liz shares how the industry\u2019s rapid growth also poses significant supply chain challenges, and she wraps up by looking West and discussing the possibilities for offshore wind in the Pacific. At least I thought she was wrapping up, but then she turns the tables on me and starts asking me questions. So, I share some of what I\u2019ve seen and learned as someone who\u2019s still relatively new to the industry.
