About This Event
This new biennial event dedicated to the maritime economy will make its debut with four days of high-level conferences and discussions to attract a global audience with representatives from energy and industrial companies, port operators, cargo and cruise shipping companies, universities and technology hubs, tourism organizations, industry associations, and maritime training institutes. Covering 70% of the Earth’s surface, the ocean supports more than 90% of global trade and carries 99% of world data traffic through submarine cables, confirming its role as a critical strategic infrastructure for the global economy.
