Shipping is vital to keeping our economies and societies afloat. It is the lifeblood of global supply chains, stretching across oceans, connecting goods and communities, reports United Nations.
Today, the maritime sector is undergoing a profound transformation as it steers towards greater digitalization, automation and decarbonization. New technologies and designs offer the opportunity to make important contributions to climate action.
This year’s theme

Safe navigation for the women and men who anchor this crucial industry must not be compromised.
