On this day in 2019, we officially opened the doors to our current headquarters at 15 Dundee Avenue, Mount Pearl — a milestone moment in our company’s journey. That day, we celebrated more than a new building. We unveiled the name “Home Port” — a reflection of Genoa’s roots in the shipbuilding industry and a tribute to Newfoundland and Labrador’s proud seafaring heritage. Designed to support a growing team, Home Port brought expanded workspaces, collaboration areas, and enhanced technology that strengthened how we work together and serve our clients and project partners. It also became exactly what its name suggests — a welcoming home base for Genoa employees working across satellite offices and project sites throughout North America. Seven years later, Home Port remains more than an office. It is a place where ideas take shape, teams connect, and our work continues to support shipbuilding and marine projects worldwide. We look back on this milestone with gratitude for everyone who helped bring Home Port to life and pride in the journey that continues within its walls.

This weekend, we’re proud to support the @JanewayNL Telethon through a combined contribution from employee donations and a corporate donation.

Through powerful stories, inspiring resilience, and incredible generosity, the Telethon highlights the life-changing impact of donor support for Janeway kids and their families. Thank you to our employees for their generosity and to everyone who helps make this remarkable tradition possible. Together, we’re helping support the care, comfort, and hope that the Janeway provides to children and families across our province.

🚢 On this day in 2019, the CCGS Capt. Jacques Cartier — the second Offshore Fisheries Science Vessel (OFSV) built by Seaspan Shipyards under Canada’s National Shipbuilding Strategy — was launched. The Offshore Fisheries Science Vessel program marked an important milestone under the National Shipbuilding Strategy, delivering the first full class of large vessels and highlighting the strength of Canadian shipbuilding, marine expertise, and innovation. The vessel supports critical science missions that help monitor fish stocks, study marine ecosystems, and better understand the impacts of climate change on our oceans. We’re proud to be part of Canada’s shipbuilding story and to contribute alongside industry partners, helping shape the future of marine design and vessel development. Today, we recognize the people, partnerships, and expertise that continue to move Canada’s marine industry forward. youtu.be/4Yi6E8dPTCM?si=rKGu…

⚓ On This Day: Sixteen years ago, the Government of Canada announced the National Shipbuilding Procurement Strategy (later renamed the National Shipbuilding Strategy (NSS)) — a long-term vision designed to revitalize Canadian shipbuilding, strengthen the marine industry, and deliver much-needed vessels for the Royal Canadian Navy and Canadian Coast Guard. The strategy marked a significant shift toward the industry here at home, creating a more predictable procurement process and helping reduce the traditional boom-and-bust cycle faced by Canadian shipyards and suppliers. By establishing long-term partnerships, encouraging regional collaboration, and creating opportunities for businesses across the marine sector, the NSS laid important groundwork for the industry we know today. For Canada’s shipbuilding community, this announcement represented more than procurement; it was a commitment to Canadian expertise, innovation, and skilled jobs. Today, we recognize this milestone and reflect on the progress made since this pivotal moment in Canada’s shipbuilding story.
