And beyond
le cluster maritime français
The Association of Administrators of Maritime Affairs brings together officers belonging to this profession regardless of
their position (active, retired or on secondment). Beyond the mutual exchange of information among its 200 members,
the association helps to spread the influence of the French maritime administrations. It also works to ensure that they
are appropriate to the needs of all aspects of the maritime environment. To that end the association publishes (once or
twice a year) “RIGEL”, a magazine devoted to legal, administrative and economic developments in the French maritime
world.

IFM
The French Institute of the Sea (IFM) is a non-profit making association whose aim is to increase awareness among the French
people of the fundamental role of the sea in all fields and to promote French maritime activities by all available means.
The French Institute of the Sea achieves its goals by lobbying, disseminating information, research, and through activities
and actions directed at decision makers and the public in general. www.institutdelamer.org et http://ifmer.org
Presse
To inform the general public or its more aware readers of the latest sea related news, the maritime sector can count on
major newspaper groups such as Infomer (www.infomer.fr) (Ouest France, Le Marin, Cultures Marines, Produits de la Mer…)
and equally on smaller, original and highly motivated organisations such as Mer et Marine.com (www.meretmarine.com)
(daily news and features on all of the French maritime players). The IFM also publishes “La Revue Maritime”, established
in 1861, the oldest publication in France to do with the sea.
