ednesday May 2, the fourth edition of the international maritime<br />

exhibition - the Danish Maritime Fair - will start at the exhibition<br />

centre Lokomotivværkstedet in Copenhagen. Up to 5,000 visitors<br />

are expected, not only people from Scandinavia but from all over the maritime<br />

world. The 2018 Fair has been expanded compared to the last Fair in 2016,<br />

and already now the area sold is 20 percent higher than in 2016. But there<br />

are still some attractive exhibition stands available for those who have not yet<br />

purchased one. Alongside the 3-day long Fair, an extensive maritime conference<br />

and meeting program take place at Lokomotivværkstedet.<br />

Exhibitor<br />

The Danish Maritime Fair 2018 is a unique opportunity for companies to<br />

showcase their products and competences to purchase strong visitors. Many of<br />

the visitors hold management positions in the 120 shipping companies who are<br />

expected to attend the exhibition again this year.<br />

The clarity of the exhibition makes it possible for exhibitioners to concentrate<br />

on the most important visitors, and in addition to this, our newly developed<br />

Partnercare Program will help exhibitors to get in contact with the right visitors.<br />

The rustic facilities and the exclusive Networking Dinner will ensure great<br />

opportunities for networking and for maintaining and expanding contacts<br />

in all fields of the maritime industry, including representatives from major<br />

organizations and key authorities. It is still possible to book an exhibition<br />

stand for your company at the fair. This can be done by contacting booking@<br />

danishmaritimefair.dk and by telephone +45 7020 4155<br />

alongside the exhibition. This is done via the exhibition's website www.<br />

danishmaritimefair.dk/registration. Admission tickets, which give entry to<br />

all three days of the exhibition, cost 200 Danish Kroner. Some conferences,<br />

workshops and events are free to attend, while others require payment. The<br />

method of payment is by debit card via the DMF-website.<br />

possible to purchase food and beverages. There will also be free access to lounge<br />

areas where visitors alongside exhibitioners are able to relax, meet or study some<br />

of the many maritime publications distributed at the Fair. The last edition of the<br />

Danish Maritime Fair, which was held in October 2016, was attended by more<br />

than 4,600 visitors, of which more than every 10th person was either company<br />

owner or top manager. 120 shipping companies chose to send one or more<br />

employees to the fair. Every fourth visitor came from abroad, and 71 countries<br />

from all over the world were represented at the exhibition.<br />

Conferences, workshops and events<br />

Two major international maritime conferences, and a number of smaller<br />

workshops and events, will take place at Lokomotivværkstedet alongside the<br />

Danish Maritime Fair in May 2018. The Danish Maritime Fair is part of Danish<br />

Maritime Days, an event that takes place from the 1st to the 4th of May. The<br />

event aims to showcase the innovative Danish maritime industry.<br />

Danish Maritime Technology Conference - gathers national and international<br />

maritime stakeholders for two short conference days. With keynote speakers<br />

and introductory speakers from at home and abroad, the Danish Maritime<br />

Technology Conference focuses on digitalization, new technologies and<br />

competences that comply with increasingly smarter, greener and more intelligent<br />

maritime systems. The conference takes place 2-3 May, and is hosted by Danske<br />

Maritime together with several members, including ABB, MAN Diesel &<br />

Turbo, Wärtsilä, Alfal Laval, C-Leanship, Pureteq and Danfoss.<br />

Opening Oceans Conference - focuses on commercial and sustainable business<br />

opportunities in the maritime industry, and how these can be extracted through<br />

new cooperation projects and competency exchanges across industries and<br />

operators. Central themes include energy production and access to minerals,<br />

changing logistic demands, food production, and releasing value from the everincreasing<br />

flow of ocean-related data. Timed to coincide with Danish Maritime<br />

Days, the conference will attract key players within maritime and the ocean<br />

industry, as well as financial, advisory, and policy leaders. Nor-Shipping are in<br />

charge of the conference, which is held from the 2nd to 3rd of May.<br />

At present, two workshops have been planned: the Maritime Logistics and Cyber ​<br />

Security at DTU on May 2nd, and the Driving Human Performance seen from<br />

an organizational perspective on May 3rd. Green-Jakobsen is in charge of the latter<br />

event. In addition to these workshops, the event Danish Ship of the Year will be<br />

held, although a date for the event has not yet been announced - plus numerous<br />

workshops and events that are still in the process of being planned. MS<br />
