As the world’s paramount exporter, China’s influence reverberates across the maritime realm – from port services and bunkering to shipbuilding and innovative technologies. However, amidst London’s vibrant maritime community, the rapid and transformative strides driven by this global shipping giant often remain opaque.

With limited participation, this exclusive gathering ensures a comprehensive exploration of the subject matter and facilitates meaningful exchanges. At the seminar’s closing, expand your professional network with colleagues from abroad during the reception.
