Maritime CleanTech Annual Conference: Chasing Zero 2025
Our flagship event brings together leaders from across the maritime value chain, including shipowners, cargo owners, yards, OEMs, ports, energy providers, investors and policymakers, to share insights and drive real progress toward zero emissions at sea.
In 2025, we build on the IMO’s new Net-Zero Framework, focusing on turning pledges into projects and exploring the technologies that make it possible, such as onboard carbon capture, wind propulsion, new fuels, digital performance tools and supporting infrastructure.
