Maritime Convention 2024, Berlin - More globally relevant than ever

Maritime Convention 2024, Berlin - More globally relevant than ever

Posted by | 18 Nov 2024 | , , , , | 0

The 17th edition of the Maritime Convention 2024 in Berlin took place in the shadow of several political events. The format remains unchanged, a large audience that is continuously represented by younger people has remained loyal for many years, the topics are always highly topical and the relevance of the maritime sector is emphasised anew every year. The German Maritime Institute (DMI) should be delighted with this trend, which has been observed for years, as its aim is to bring the maritime idea to the inland and into people's consciousness. However, the growing presence of the maritime world is developing in an increasingly unpeaceful world - and this is certainly...

Every two years, the world of shipping comes together in Hamburg for SMM. It has long been customary to use this occasion not only to celebrate the booming industry, but also to take a look at the risks. This is why the Maritime Security and Defence (MS&D) conference is held. The motto of this year's SMM is "Driving the Maritime Transition". Nowhere are the changes to be managed on the world's oceans more evident than in the area of security. It is the traditional theme of the MS&D - this year under completely different auspices than in the past. Civil and military shipping are equally challenged....

MS&D: Maritime security a focus of the SMM

The maritime world is exposed to multiple threats, the armed conflicts in the Black and Red Seas being just two of them. Maritime security is an issue all over the world, and not just for the defence sectors. From piracy to illegal fishing: trade and free sea routes are under threat. Against this backdrop, prominent figures from politics, industry, science and navies will meet next September. They will discuss urgent issues of security and defence at sea. The forum for this will be provided by the MS&D Conference, which will take place from 5-6 September as part of the SMM. For the first time, the "Conference on maritime security and defence"...

From 3 to 6 September, SMM will once again be a hotspot for the maritime industry. In addition to the main topics of decarbonisation and digitalisation, this year's focus will increasingly be on maritime security. Attacks by Houthi rebels on merchant ships in the Red Sea, geopolitical tensions in the Taiwan Strait, armed attacks by pirates in the Horn of Africa: the many critical security situations worldwide pose enormous challenges for the shipping industry. Martin Kröger, Managing Director of the German Shipowners' Association, rightly demands that the protection of ships and seafarers on the sea routes must be the top priority. The shipowners receive support from naval vessels that...
