The European Maritime Day is celebrated annually in Europe on 20 May. This annual platform welcomes Europe’s growing maritime community joining policy makers to discuss, debate and exchange best practices. The seas and oceans, and the opportunities they offer, are at the heart of the discussions. The 2015 Conference will be held in Praeus, Greece.
Conference overview
The European Maritime Day Conference will host high-level sessions and stakeholder workshops attracting delegates and experts from across Europe and beyond. Speakers, including Ministers, Commissioners, CEOs and experts, will discuss the spectrum of opportunities and great challenges that our coasts and seas present, share best practices, and develop new synergies. On 28 May, the high-level plenary session will introduce the main political challenges of coastal cities and ports. The different aspects of this theme will be declined over the two days in three thematic sessions and about 20 workshops.
Today you can sign up for workshops and face-to-face-meetings in parallel to the Conference with other members of the maritime community. Register for the conference!
