New technologies and education were the focus of the day-long summit held, March 16, at the Eugenides Foundation, Athens, organised by Newsfront / Naftiliaki under the auspices of Greece’s Martecma (Marine Technical Managers Association).

400 delegates, from 242 companies and 13 countries, attended the Summit and helped the buzz going.

The video of the summit (in three parts, i.e the three sessions) has been uploaded at the Summit’s website:

We are delighted to report the feed-back has been extremely positive and we believe the Summit went someway to assessing the challenges facing the shipping industry as it strives to comply with the goals of becoming even more greener, efficient, safer and environmentally friendly, as well as recognising the key roles played by management, seafarers and the developers of new technology in this transition.

We already have plans regarding the next Greener Shipping Summit, to be held November 7, 2023 at the Eugenides Foundation and we would welcome any comments you may have, especially about the conference program.
