FORUM OVERVIEW

The international nature of shipping within the transformative, maritime industry is more apparent than ever. In spite of marketplace unpredictability and tightness in the financial markets, the industry has managed to access capital and continue to finance its vessels and projects.  New opportunities for growth in the shipping industry have been spurred on not only by the surge in industrialization and urbanization in developing countries, such as China and India, but also by calls for environmental accountability and regulation.

In this milieu of new hurdles and opportunities, Capital Link welcomes you to the 4th Annual Invest in International Shipping & Marine Services Forum, held in London and in cooperation with the London Stock Exchange.  This event aims to provide investors with a comprehensive review and current outlook of the various shipping and marine services markets, and raise the profile of listed shipping and marine services amongst the UK and wider European investment communities.

The Forum also presents a unique opportunity to meet and network with a large high-caliber target audience of ship owning executives, institutional investors, research analysts, industry experts, commercial and investment bankers, risk advisors, private equity and venture capital firms, high-net worth investors, and financial media. The event will also be open to the buy and sell side communities.
