Trade
Collaborating in the maritime sector
Within the Trade Council (TC) of The Dutch Maritime Network, sector-wide cooperation and knowledge sharing in the field of trade are central. The focus areas within this council are trade promotion, international visibility of the maritime sector, industrial policy & business climate.
The connection with the Top Sector Water & Maritime (TSWM) is extremely important in this regard, which is why the TC provides the vice-chairman of the International Core Team of the TSWM. This offers the opportunity to position the maritime sector well within the internationalization strategy of the government, for example when it comes to participation in strategic fairs and trade missions. The TC also works closely with RVO on Dutch maritime branding. The main goal of the TC is to increase the visibility of the maritime sector and the marketing of its innovative and sustainable solutions abroad.
Goals Trade Council
