Three major events to be staged concurrently during this period
Seatrade Offshore Marine & Workboats; Seatrade Shiptech and Seatrade Maritime Awards Middle East, Indian Subcontinent & Africa have recently been announced as three major events to be held during UAE Maritime Week 2019, which runs between 22 and 26 September.
The maritime-led week of activities also includes several other associated shipping & maritime events and the popular Dubai Maritime Agenda – a Dubai Maritime Cluster Office biennial event.
According to Chris Morley, Event Director, Seatrade Maritime, Informa Markets, the decision to align Seatrade Offshore Marine & Workboats Middle East with UAE Maritime Week was to ensure it was part of this important industry week and alongside other Seatrade events.
“We are delighted to be working again with Dubai Maritime City Authority (DMCA) and Dubai Maritime Cluster Office to bring several world-class events to this critical week,” remarked Morley.
Recognised as the world’s ninth leading maritime capital (Source: Menon Economics), Dubai has reaffirmed its position as a first-class international maritime hub whilst continuing to develop a safe maritime environment for maritime operations and businesses.
“The decision to organise the UAE Maritime Week every year instead of every two years represents an important step towards promoting Dubai and the UAE’s successful maritime experience on the global stage,” said Amer Ali, Executive Director, DMCA.
