POSIDONIA 2026 - International Shipping Exhibition in Athens | June 03 - 07, 2024

The World’s Shipping Powerhouse The numbers speak for themselves. Greek shipowners control 21% of global tonnage with a total of 5,543 ships and Greece continues to be the world’s largest shipping nation and controller of some 70% of the EU fleet of strategically important vessels. The Greek fleet represents: 30% of the world’s oil tanker fleet 25% of the world’s bulk carriers 23% of the world’s liquefied natural gas (LNG) carriers 15% of the world’s chemical and product tankers 13% of the world’s liquified petroleum gas (LPG) carriers 9% of the world’s containerships The Posidonia Opportunity The cluster of over 5,000 companies established or represented in Greece includes many of the world’s top owners, managers and service operations. More shipping capacity is managed from Greece than anywhere else. Hundreds of service providers, technical firms, equipment makers and shipyards also have a presence in the cluster. Posidonia takes its exhibitors to the heart of this community, giving them unmatched access to owners and managers keen to engage with suppliers and service companies for their shipping operations and fleet renewal. Technical and operations executives from all over the world will also be keen to engage with exhibitors – not only to discuss solutions but to make decisions. Posidonia is known for the business done in its exhibition halls. No other shipping event is attended by as many Greek and international shipowners and shipping executives. And Posidonia is more than an Exhibition Posidonia week also includes an extended conference, seminars and technical workshops programme. The popular programme of main conference sessions, focused workshops and seminars will be further developed at Posidonia 2026. Chaired by industry leaders, there will be lively discussion and debate on issues, challenges and opportunities facing the industry. Posidonia 2026 will again host the Tradewinds Shipowners Forum at the Posidonia Conference Hall on Tuesday 2 June 2026.
