SMM Hamburg

+++ This just in +++ ❕ Hamburg aims to set a benchmark for sustainability: Today - right now - the first Hamburg Sustainability Conference (HSC) is about to begin, which from now on will be held annually to embed the UN's Sustainability Goals in both politics and society. 🤝 The event is organised by the federal government, with support from the city and the Michael Otto Foundation for Sustainability. Chancellor Olaf Scholz, alongside Mayor Peter Tschentscher, open the two-day event, which takes place at the Town Hall and the Chamber of Commerce. There will also be accompanying talks and sessions at the university. 🚢 One of the topics is the climate-friendly transformation of shipping, which will also be discussed at another event in Hamburg: the IAPH World Ports Conference. This will start tomorrow, on Tuesday, where representatives of international ports are going to discuss measures in light of the energy transition. 👉 You can already join the HSC live! Tune in to the livestream and watch highlight sessions featuring global leaders from politics, business, science, and civil society: https://lnkd.in/dr3X5ESE #HSC24 #IAPH2024 #MaritimeIndustry #Maritime #SMMfair #DrivingTheMaritimeTransition Hamburg Messe und Congress GmbH #TheIdealConnection

When you look back at SMM 2024, you realise that in addition to the talks, panels and conferences, there were many other great events surrounding the trade fair as well. 🏃♂️ For example, the BUSINESSrun 61. A fabulous idea for a really good cause that brought new impressions, memories - and a meaningful result for charity, too. 👛 All participant's fees were donated 100% to Blue Marine Foundation.💙 As far as we know, it was a great run around the Alster Lakes on 4 September, with the benefit of renewing old acquaintances and finding new and exciting connections from all around the world. 🌐   Some unexpected showers soaked the runners as the run began, but were quickly replaced by sunshine and smiles and eventually a rainbow over the Alster, making for a memorable morning. 🌞 #MaritimeIndustry #Maritime #SMMfair #Charity #Run #DrivingTheMaritimeTransition Hamburg Messe und Congress GmbH #TheIdealConnection

After SMM is before SMM, so to speak. 🔁 We would like to take this opportunity to draw the attention of all those who do not necessarily want to wait until SMM 2026 to INMEX SMM India 2025! 🚢 And because India's first national pavilion here in Hamburg already gave us an exquisite foretaste two weeks ago, we would be delighted to meet you in Mumbai next September as well! 👋 ℹ More information right here: https://lnkd.in/dXfMVrmx जल्द ही फिर मिलेंगे #Maritime #SMMfair #DrivingTheMaritimeTransition Hamburg Messe und Congress GmbH #TheIdealConnection #INMEXSMM

After taking a brief look back at the four days of SMM together with DNV - Maritime last week, we are now looking to the future together. Literally. 🔎 ➡ The 8th edition of their Maritime Forecast to 2050 report - which was launched during SMM - assesses the road ahead for shipping, analyzing regulations, technologies, and fuel availability, and helping stakeholders to make decarbonization decisions today. 🖼 As shown in the report, these aspects are definitely a complex puzzle with many potential solutions. With carbon-neutral fuels expensive and in short supply, prioritising energy efficiency, embracing digitalisation, and leveraging technological solutions are key steps towards reducing costs and achieving decarbonization goals. ➡ You can download your free copy of the report right here: https://bit.ly/4e17PPK #Maritime #SMMfair #DrivingTheMaritimeTransition Hamburg Messe und Congress GmbH #TheIdealConnection #maritimeforecast #decarbonisation

It’s this time of year already, isn’t it? 🕰 The time of reviews and moving picture recaps. Or to say it in the words of this year’s main sponsor: “SMM Hamburg might be over, but the memories will last a lifetime!”   🍧 Thanks DNV, for providing us with your special wrap-up video featuring Knut Ørbeck-Nilssen and some of his favorite SMM-moments. We would love to get to know yours in the comments below, if you like ⁉   📸 And please stay tuned for more impressions of #SMM2024 over the next couple of weeks – some are just too good not to be shared…   #Exhibition #Maritime #SMMfair #DrivingTheMaritimeTransition Hamburg Messe und Congress GmbH #TheIdealConnection #ThankYou

Last week we opened the doors to SMM 2024 for you! And although Friday, the last day of the trade fair, has already been more than a weekend ago, we are still impressed. 🌎 🌍 🌏 By more than 2,200 exhibiting companies, associations, partners and over 48,000 participants. 🤝 For this amount of expertise, exchange and innovation, we - the team behind SMM - would like to thank each and everyone who brought their part, their energy, their perspective to this event. And who, piece by piece, created this unique experience, together! The best SMM ever? Very likely. ✨ (Definitely until the next one in two years' time!) #Exhibition #Maritime #SMMfair #DrivingTheMaritimeTransition Hamburg Messe und Congress GmbH #TheIdealConnection #ThankYou

What SMM 2024 is all about? Claus Ulrich Selbach will tell you in our last Daily Recap! 🎉 (And if you like, you can jump straight to watching the video, without further ado.) 🤝 Putting it in corporate words: „For four days, the shipbuilding universe has met in Hamburg at the 31st SMM. The mood has been excellent at the leading international maritime trade fair as well-established enterprises and start-ups alike have laid out before the maritime business world the technological innovations and solutions it needs to build a green and digital shipping future.“ 🌐 Putting it in not-so-corporate words: These four days have absolutely been a blast! With over 48,000 participants from more than 100 countries, we can just say, thank you for making this event a real experience! It has been the last day of the show for now – and we are happy and sad at the same time. But to leave on a high note, the next SMM will take place in Hamburg from 1 to 4 September 2026. 🗓 Save the date, that’s just 725 days away! #DailyRecap #Exhibition #Maritime #SMMfair #DrivingTheMaritimeTransition Hamburg Messe und Congress GmbH #TheIdealConnection

How old is the SMM? 🧓 To be honest: younger than people might think! In addition to all the panels, talks and innovations, today offered a forum especially for young talents. To be more precise: it offered a marketplace - the Maritime Career Market! 📈 Taking place across two days for the first time and offering comprehensive information on career prospects in the maritime transition. Speaking of - the Transition Stages with their free admission for all visitors certainly fueled the continuing buzz in our exhibiton halls. And the two-day MS&D conference on maritime security and defence sure did attract particular attention. 🛡 Have we mentioned the Offshore Dialogue yet? Or the very first "AI for the Oceans Award"? 🤖 Even on Day 3, there was so much we could go on and on about... But, well, just see for yourself in our Daily Recap! #DailyRecap #Exhibition #Maritime #DrivingTheMaritimeTransition Hamburg Messe und Congress GmbH #TheIdealConnection

Although SMM 2024 is - of course - the place to be at the moment, there are also events beyond that we would like to mention. 📢 Even more so: that should receive more attention. 🏆 Last night, the AMVER Awards ceremony took place in Hamburg. So we caught up directly with Benjamin Strong, the director of Automated Mutual Assistance Vessel Rescue System (AMVER), during SMM to have a quick chat about that - in an Industry Talk on-site, so to speak. And by the way, congratulations to all of the award recipients! Thank you for your commitment to safety at sea. ⚓ #Exhibition #Maritime #SMMfair #DrivingTheMaritimeTransition Hamburg Messe und Congress GmbH #TheIdealConnection #AMVER
