The Ship Finance Pavilion that was introduced during the 2021 edition will see its return at Europort 2023. This time with an even more extensive programme to cater visitors with advice and/or insights on ship finance, maritime funding and possible subsidies for sustainable innovation.

 

The goal of the pavilion is to enable informal dialogues between finance experts and maritime organisations. Furthermore there are also a few short sessions on specific topics. The organising parties have also scheduled an interesting programme for students and young professionals on Friday.

 

A broad and diverse pavilion

On Tuesday the focus is on financing. Visitors are able discuss funding opportunities with various experts or attend a short pitch by one of the financiers.

There will also be a short presentation about European developments and the impact of geo-political trends on ship finance.
