SMM is a great platform to meet old and new partners and customers from all over the world in just four days. And, by the way, SMM’s claim “Driving the maritime transition” is exactly what MAN Energy Solutions stands for…

One of SMM’s defining qualities is its ability to bring together people from the entire spectrum of the maritime business. There is a real buzz every day of the fair. It is a place to inspire and be inspired, coming face-to-face with the individuals, technologies and services that will write the next chapters in the story of how we conduct responsible commercial activity within the ocean environment. We are already looking forward to 2022.

As a technical provider for marine energy transition growth, we need SMM as the perfect international stage to display our technologies in MHI Group for decarbonising the maritime shipping industry.

SMM as the leading international maritime trade fair is always part of our event calendar as an exhibitor. We are very much looking forward to seeing our customers and partners in person again in September 2022 at SMM in Hamburg.

SMM is an excellent arena for Kongsberg Maritime to meet with customers and partners to discuss the latest innovations and future trends for the maritime market.

For us, SMM is the ideal platform to get a complete overview of the latest technical innovations and to meet important suppliers from all over the world.

The global maritime sector is facing an unprecedented transformation process. Whether it's the decarbonisation of shipping, the digitalisation of the value chain or the support of the energy transition through offshore innovations, smart minds, entrepreneurship and cutting-edge technology are needed to meet the challenges. I am therefore very pleased to join the leading maritime companies for the 30th SMM in Hamburg in September 2022.

SMM attracts a truly diverse range of companies from across the entire breadth of the maritime market, and we look forward to meeting partners and customers throughout the event. As we will be launching our full service in 2023, SMM is a perfectly timed platform to share OneWeb’s vision for how our pioneering, terrestrial-grade connectivity solutions will help to accelerate digitalisation throughout the maritime industry so that together we can create a more efficient, sustainable, and profitable future.

Innovative solutions to support shipping’s green transition will take centre-stage at SMM, IMO is committed to facilitating the transition to a green and sustainable future. In keeping with this aim, the IMO 2022 World Maritime theme, “New technologies for greener shipping”, will provide an enhanced focus on innovation to make the transition a reality. I look forward to engaging with key stakeholders and discussing how to ensure a just and equitable transition that also recognizes the need for skills and technology development in developing countries.
