THE MAGNIFICENT SEVEN

T

is in a state of flux. Six years ago, in 2019, discussion was dominated by post-Brexit anxieties combined with trade wars, sanctions and concern over the new IMO global sulphur regulations. In 2021, the ravages of Covid-19 impacted everything.

Every second year, as London International Shipping Week comes around, the world

Two years ago, the industry was grappling with war in Ukraine and the disruption of energy, grain, and shipping markets worldwide, as well as with new net zero targets and tightening carbon regulation.

Now, in 2025, geopolitics has come to dominate every aspect of shipping and trade, from escalating violence in the Middle East and continuing war in Ukraine, to the tariff-driven uncertainty that makes this an increasingly unpredictable world.

his is the seventh London International Shipping Week, 12 years after the first edition of this amazing biennial event took place in 2013. Created by Sean Moloney and Llewellyn Bankes-Hughes, nurtured by their fabulous teams at Elaborate Communications and ship.energy (previously known as Petrospot), and helped enormously by the top-level members of the LISW Steering Group, Board of Advisors and various focused Working Groups, this event has grown to become one of the biggest, most influential and most inclusive maritime events in the world.

6

LISW23 Official Event Guide LISW25 Against this backdrop, the LISW25 Conference will explore the complex and often contradictory forces shaping the future of global shipping.

Under the theme The Management of Paradox in Global Shipping, it will examine how the industry is navigating competing pressures – such as the drive for decarbonisation alongside the demand for growth, and the pursuit of resilience in an increasingly fragmented global economy. LISW25 offers a timely and influential platform for critical reflection, collaboration, and forward-thinking dialogue at a pivotal moment for the industry.

With more than 30,000 industry leaders in London to attend hundreds of events during a week of sharp debate and intense networking, LISW25 will again demonstrate that it is fully inclusive and hugely influential. With upwards of 30 international delegations taking part, some at the LISW25

Global Hub and many brining their Trade and Maritime Ministers, Ambassadors and other toplevel representatives, this promises to be the most international edition to date.

Successive editions of LISW have helped virtually eradicate the UK’s inward-looking London-centric mindset and replaced it with a genuinely global outreach which has become a powerful magnet to international industry and governments alike.

This was always the intention, back in 2013 when the first edition was held, but the scale and speed of LISW’s development still comes as a surprise to Sean and Llewellyn, co-owners, founders and organisers of London International Shipping Week. Both are immensely proud of what they have created but humbled by the enormous amount of work everyone involved has dedicated to the cause. s

COLLABORATING FOR A PROSPEROUS MARITIME FUTURE

By Brian Johnson Chair of Maritime UK

W

elcome to London and to the UK, an undisputed global leader for maritime. Since we last convened in 2023, our sector has continued its dynamic evolution, adapting to ever-changing global circumstances.

London International Shipping Week is all about uniting in partnership, serving as a crucial platform where industry leaders, policymakers, and stakeholders come together to tackle our shared challenges and forge the future of not only shipping but the entire maritime industry, across its widereaching breadth and depth.

This year, in 2025, we will delve into some of the most pressing issues facing our sector, from decarbonisation to the advancement of AI and importantly the value of the people in our sector.

Once again, an exceptional line-up of conferences, seminars, and receptions will bring together the brightest minds in the industry from across the world. Together, we aim to achieve far more through discussion and collaboration than we ever could

alone, reinforcing London and the United Kingdom’s unparalleled influence in this global sector.

Maritime has always been the lifeblood of our country, and as an island nation, our prosperity has perpetually hinged on the sea. But despite the UK’s rich maritime heritage, we firmly believe our most prosperous days lie ahead. Thanks to our unparalleled expertise in business services, cutting-edge technology, and the very highest quality of education, the United Kingdom remains a thriving hub for this most global of industries. This is particularly true for our vibrant ecosystem of Britain’s SME’s, which are at the forefront of innovation and offer exceptional opportunities for international investment, driving growth not just in London but across our coastal communities.

LISW provides an unparalleled opportunity to showcase the UK as a world leader in maritime, inspiring both growth and international investment.

We are here, as we have been for centuries, to collaborate with the global leaders of maritime and work towards a brighter, more prosperous future for our industry. Enjoy LISW; we look forward to seeing you throughout the week. s

PROTECTING NATIONAL INTERESTS

By General Sir Gwyn Jenkins KCB OBE ADC RM First Sea Lord

O

n behalf of the Royal Navy, welcome to London International Shipping Week 2025. This event comes at a significant time, with the maritime sector playing a central role in national security and economic stability. Recent developments have highlighted the importance of a capable and integrated maritime force to protect national interests in an increasingly complex global environment.

The 2025 Strategic Defence Review emphasised the need to safeguard critical maritime infrastructure.

Global shipping, which underpins international trade, and the undersea network of cables and pipelines are now key priorities in strategic planning. The Royal Navy remains committed to ensuring the uninterrupted flow of vital food, energy, and data.

Protecting these assets is a shared responsibility.

While a resilient Navy is essential, strong alliances are equally critical. Partnerships within NATO and with other key allies and stakeholders in the maritime sector are vital to deterring aggression, upholding international law, and ensuring freedom of navigation for lawful maritime activity. A collective approach remains the most effective deterrent.

To meet these commitments, the Royal Navy is ready for warfighting - a Navy that leads, fights, and wins. As First Sea Lord, my strategy is built on deterring adversaries, demonstrating readiness, and, if required, outmanoeuvring and defeating those who would threaten our security. Alignment across the entire maritime enterprise, from government and defence to industry, shipyards, and ports, is required.

As part of LISW 2025, the Royal Navy will host a roundtable discussion on maritime security; additionally, a reception aboard HMS PRESIDENT will bring together industry and government representatives to explore collaborative approaches to shared security and prosperity.

LISW 2025 provides an important platform for the maritime community to address current challenges and opportunities. The Royal Navy remains committed to protecting global trade and critical infrastructure. By working together with governments, industry, and international partners, we can build a resilient maritime enterprise capable of addressing modern complexities. Through collaboration and innovation, we can ensure the seas remain secure and open for future generations. s

THANK YOU TO THE BOARD OF ADVISORS OF LISW25

By Denis Petropoulos

Chair of the LISW25 Board of Advisors

N

ever has shipping been more in the public eye than now. The shipping industry has always been of paramount importance, often taken for granted, where virtually the entire world’s population rely on seaborne transport in supplying their essential bulk cargoes and distribution of manufactured products.

waiting to happen. Nevertheless, 85% of the world’s fleet trades in accordance with the demands of society with our governments treading a balance in ensuring sufficient supply meets demand. Attention should be drawn to the responsible fleet, not the dark fleet, which the world’s responsible nations need to be supporting. The safety of crews, cargoes and our sea depend on the responsible fleet and the infrastructures that enable that.

With the overloaded geopolitical news and the world’s governments’ uncertainty on handling these seismic issues, global trade still continues, as it must, with shipping as the main mode of transport.

As a consequence of conflicts in Eastern Europe and Eastern Mediterranean, the wantful destruction of urban cities is leaving a huge global carbon footprint largely cancelling years of efforts of decarbonising shipping, but again as a responsible industry shipping continues in its development of more efficient and cleaner propulsion. Our exceptional Board of Advisors have enormous collective experience; they have managed shipping through many adversities and conflicts over the years and with thanks to this board the many events at LISW25 will address all these issues and more.

Suddenly there are disruptions to trade routes with sea lanes under threat and increased security to protect our essential cargoes running at its highest.

Trade sanctions with various countries have sadly created a dark fleet of ships uninsured, operated by inexperienced teams with poor seafarer welfare.

There are those profiteering from sanctioned trading, but where there is demand there is need of transportation. Many unscrupulous operators with old oil tankers in fraudulent registers are heightening the risk of pollution with environmental disaster

I look forward to a robust week of honest and open discussions on the many issues that shipping is involved. s

A WARM WELCOME TO ALL DELEGATES

By John Hulmes

Chair of the LISW25 Steering Group

O

n behalf of all those involved in the organising of LISW25 including the hundreds of organisations and sponsors who are putting on events during the week, a massive welcome to the tens of thousands of delegates from the domestic and international shipping and maritime industries. We know that you have tight budgets and limited time, and it is gratifying that you have chosen to spend a week with us in London and the UK. The essence of LISW is that it is different from the other leading global maritime events. As you fathom your way through the hundreds of events during the week it will soon become clear that all the major issues faced by our industry will be discussed and debated. For one week London will be the focus of the international shipping and maritime industries, a true centre for thought leadership. Key figures from around the world will be engaged in discussing the things that are relevant to the future of our industry.

Central to the debate will be the Headline Conference held again at the iconic IMO Building.

Time allows us to focus on a limited number of issues.

We have listened to the industry and sought to focus on the key issues of the day. Much of the conference agenda is focused on how shipping can adapt to the challenges posed by a volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous geopolitical environment.

We are grateful to our partners from industry and government who have organised such a tremendous range of events during the week. Without this support LISW would not exist. It would be unfair to pick out events as there are so many premium events, with so many having been fully booked up months in advance.

The week will be rounded off with our Gala Dinner which has now become the event that everybody from the global industry wants to attend. This will be my 4th and final Gala Dinner as Chair of the Steering Group. It has been an honour and pleasure to help deliver LISW over the last 8 years and to work with such tremendous and talented people from across the industry.

Enjoy your week and safe travels home. s

THANKS TO ALL WHO HAVE SUPPORTED LISW25 – AN EVENT TO BE PROUD OF

By Sean Moloney and Llewellyn Bankes-Hughes

Co-CEOs of Shipping Innovation and founders of London International Shipping Week

I

t becomes something of a regular occurrence to compare each LISW in terms of attendees and participants and industry impact. But judging by the scope and depth of the events being held during this London International Shipping Week, LISW25 has entered a new phase. It is clearly more international; more industry facing; more issuerelevant than ever before and more inclusive when it comes to people and the industrial sectors in which they work. It will set the bar for future international events such as these, but it could not have happened without the support of the impressive collection of LISW25 Supporting Organisations and Sponsors.

For this we thank you very much.

This September, thousands of industry leaders will be in London to attend hundreds of events. Almost every maritime-related subject will be discussed and debated at the events being held at some of the most iconic venues in London. Debates about geopolitics will compete for attention with discussions about decarbonisation, digitalisation, innovation and people.

The sheer variety of events and what they offer is what makes LISW so different to any other event of its size and such an exciting one to be part of.

We are lucky enough to say we have the full support of His Majesty’s Government as well as a large, and growing, number of governments from around the world. They will bring in their delegations and network and strike business accords with like-minded people.

The emergence of the Global Hub, to be held on Tuesday September 16th on the top floor of County Hall, right next door to the London Eye, is an exciting addition. It will work to focus attention on the pivotal role London, and the UK, plays internationally.

As co-owners, founders and co-CEOs of London International Shipping Week, we are immensely proud of what has been created – of course with the enormous help of the Board of Advisors, the Steering Group, Working Groups, the amazing teams at Elaborate Communications, Shipping Innovation and ship.energy, and the hundreds of people who have dedicated their time and experience – and will continue to work tirelessly to ensure that LISW remains one of the most popular and influential maritime events in the world. Things can only get better.

We send a huge thank you to everyone who has supported LISW. s

MOVING FORWARD WITH THE TIMES

By Mark Jackson

Chief Executive, Baltic Exchange

T

he maritime industry has been woven into the fabric of London for so long now that the two seem almost indistinguishable. London International Shipping Week is the epitome of that collaboration, showcasing the importance of UKbased businesses among the world’s very best to a global audience, many of whom continue to rely on London as the home of maritime law, finance, insurance and broking.

Nevertheless, as the maritime industry rapidly evolves to meet the needs of the 21st century and the modern shipping player, it has never been more important for London’s shipping businesses to evolve with it.

This year’s London International Shipping Week will be full of discussions focused on some of the most pressing subjects impacting our industry. These events, which will bring together shipping professionals, experts and partners from around the world in the city, will help shape our industry in the years and decades to come.

There is no more important subject than furthering our cause to make the maritime industry more sustainable as we all work towards our 2050

targets. While we are already a quarter into this century, the need to move forward with the times has never been clearer.

Baltic Exchange is proud to be doing its part, supporting our members and the wider maritime industry by delivering the data it needs to make more informed and impactful decisions when it comes to decarbonisation choices. From understanding how new regulations will impact daily operations to deciding which greener fuel choice is the most suitable, Baltic Exchange continues to evolve alongside London’s maritime sector, empowering today’s modern shipping professionals with the tools they need to succeed in a complex landscape.

Over the coming days, we will see crucial discussions take place, new partnerships forged and potentially landmark deals be made right in the heart of the UK’s maritime industry.

On behalf of Baltic Exchange and the London International Shipping Week Steering Committee, I wish to welcome you all to London and look forward to meeting with many of you soon. s

LONDON - A CLUSTER OF UNRIVALED EXPERTISE

By Jos Standerwick CEO, Maritime London

L

ondon International Shipping Week encapsulates the global nature of this great City and its pivotal role in facilitating global seaborne trade.

London’s success has always been premised on being a market where all comers are welcome to seek out solutions and transact business in a cluster of unrivalled capacity and expertise. The competition in the cluster drives companies to constantly innovate and demonstrate value to a truly global client base.

Just like the market it is designed to showcase, the scale of the week and number of events means that those hosting seminars, conferences, and dare I say drinks receptions cannot rest on their laurels, to attract delegates, they must provide high class events and vehicles for meaningful discourse exploring the key issues that exist within the shipping zeitgeist. The competition that exists

during the week and the consequential effect on quality can only be a good thing for those attending.

In a period of rapid change and increasing complexity, LISW provides a forum to build relationships, increase understanding, offer both formal and informal platforms for honest and robust debate, and, most importantly, foster trust.

I have no doubt LISW25 will be an enjoyable and insightful week. I look forward to learning a lot, having my views challenged, catching up with old friends and making new ones. Lastly, while LISW is definitely market led, it does not happen in isolation. Several dedicated, voluntary working groups made up of industry professionals take responsibility for key elements of the week, supported by an excellent central secretariat.

I would like to thank all those who give up so much of their time to support LISW and ensure a successful week. s

UK SHIPPING: POWERING GLOBAL TRADE AND DELIVERING PROSPERITY

By Rhett Hatcher

CEO, UK Chamber of Shipping

L

ondon International Shipping Week 2025 provides an unparalleled opportunity to showcase the dynamism, innovation and prosperity within the UK Shipping industry to a global audience.

As evidenced in the UK Chamber’s recent Value of Shipping Report, ours is an industry which powers our economy, connects our communities, drives innovation and enables the UK’s trade with the world - bringing growth and opportunity throughout the nation.

Our industry is growing, by 7% annually, outpacing all other modes of transport. Our industry is innovating – delivering cutting edge technological advances to power the global energy transition. And our industry is driving growth, supporting nearly £1 trillion in trade, and nearly 100,000 highly productive jobs around the country.

Beyond our vital economic contribution, shipping is the lifeline of our island nation. UK ports handle nearly 450 million tonnes of cargo annually, delivering everything from food and fuel, to medicines and electronics. Passenger services provide vital transport links for nearly 2.5 million people, and cruise tourism injects £170 million into the economy each year, supporting coastal communities throughout the UK.

As the voice of UK Shipping, the UK Chamber is proud - during LISW25 and beyond - to tell our industry’s story. We are proud to represent the vibrant and prosperous shipping industry to stakeholders, policy makers and representatives of our global industry, promoting the opportunities for investment innovation and growth, sharing insights research and expertise and shaping the dialogue on current challenges and future opportunities.

During LISW25 the UK Chamber will explore key themes as we look, together with our global partners, to the future. We will launch new research into how, with Government, we can set a course for growth and explore how the UK can remain a preeminent maritime centre in the face of global competition. We will examine how the shifting dynamics of global geopolitics and trade, alongside changing regulatory frameworks, will shape the industry in the years ahead. We will evaluate how our industry can best attract and retain people and ensure that we have the skills and talent we need to meet these challenges with confidence.

I look forward to welcoming you to London, to sharing our story with you during LISW25, and to working together to build a more prosperous and greener maritime future. s

GATEWAYS TO UK GLOBAL TRADE LINKS

By Richard Ballantyne OBE, Chief Executive, British Ports Association Geraint Evans Chief Executive, UK Major Ports Group Ltd

W

e are excited to welcome you to the 2025 edition of LISW, an event we hope will reinforce the critical role that the ports industry plays in enabling shipping to interface with markets in both Britain and abroad.

Our ports are quite literally the gateways to the UK’s global trade links. Indeed the ports sector handles 95% of the UK’s imports and exports which underlines the significance of both shipping to the economy and the role ports play in facilitating this vital activity.

As well as providing an invaluable networking opportunity, the week is a unique chance to shine the light on the maritime sector. Unlike other modes of transport, ports, shipping and freight are essentially market-led industries meaning our asks of both political decision makers and industry partners tend to be targeted and commercially focused.

We do however need policy makers to understand that providing the right regulatory, planning and

business environment will help drive investment into our coastal regions as well as enable ports and shipping companies to create invaluable jobs both here and abroad.

The Government, through the new Industrial Strategy, must define the ‘foundational’ role of ports, maximise the efficiency of planning systems, ensure trade policies are pro-facilitation and significantly, the economic climate is conducive to driving inward investment opportunities.

Finally, we would also like to take the opportunity to highlight the array of ports and maritime activities the UK has. Being an island really underlines the significance of shipping to our country.

We hope you have a fruitful week and look forward to welcoming everyone to London to learn more about our dynamic and diverse ports industry. Whether it is growing international trade and strategic links or delivering the energy transition, ports are how. s

BUILDING SOLUTIONS THAT WORK

By Lars Lippuner

Maritime and Coastguard Agency Director UK Customer Maritime Services

O

n behalf of the Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA) and UK Flag, welcome to London International Shipping Week.

We gather at a pivotal moment for global shipping; one that demands practical collaboration between industry and regulators to turn ambition into action.

When we share insight early, challenge ideas openly and align on outcomes, we reduce risk, speed approvals and deliver real progress that counts.

People are at the heart of that progress. Seafarers keep trade moving, ensuring safety, resilience, and bring hard earned experience and expertise to every innovation we introduce. Their voices must shape how new technologies are designed, deployed and continuously improved. Investing in skills, welfare and safe working practices is not a separate priority; it is the foundation for every step taken on decarbonisation, digitalisation and autonomy.

Innovation flourishes when it is guided by clear, outcome focused regulation. That is why we are strengthening pathways that help good ideas turn

into working solutions. The MCA is setting up a dedicated Maritime Innovation Hub which will act as a single front door for innovators: helping owners, operators and technology providers navigate evidence requirements, trials and alternative design approaches, so promising concepts can move faster from pilot to practice. By bringing ship owners/operators, class and regulators together earlier, we can de risk projects, support investment decisions and enable safe adoption at scale.

Across the week you will see that same spirit of partnership in action: industry leaders, seafarers, maritime professionals, academics and policymakers focusing on practical steps to cut emissions, enhance safety, raise standards and grow maritime prosperity.

We invite you to challenge us, share what you need from regulation, and explore how collaboration can unlock your next milestone whether that’s deploying an alternative fuel, optimising operations or scaling a digital service.

Thank you for being here. Let’s use this week to build solutions that work in the real world and deliver them together. s

HEADLINE CONFERENCE PROGRAMME

REGISTRATION AND NETWORKING BREAKFAST

The LISW25 Conference will explore the complex and often contradictory forces shaping the future of global shipping. Under the theme “The Management of Paradox in Global Shipping,” the programme will examine how the industry is navigating competing pressures—such as the drive for decarbonisation alongside the demand for growth, and the pursuit of resilience in an increasingly fragmented global economy.

Through a series of high-level panels and keynote discussions, the conference will address the systemic changes transforming the global supply chain. The strategic implications for maritime stakeholders, and the leadership required to respond effectively. These conversations will take place within a global context yet grounded in a location that continues to be the leading provider of the commercial, legal, and financial expertise essential to enabling progress.

LISW25 offers a timely and influential platform for critical reflection, collaboration, and forward-thinking dialogue at a pivotal moment for the industry.

09:00 - 10:00 SESSION ONE: WELCOME TO THE LISW25 CONFERENCE Welcome Address: John Hulmes Chair, LISW25 Steering Group Conference Chair’s Introduction: Michael Parker LISW25 Board of Advisors

Chairman Global Shipping, Logistics & Offshore, Citi Keynote Address: How will the role of the IMO change in the next 10 years and what will be its interaction with the shipping industry?

Arsenio Dominguez Secretary-General, IMO

Keynote Address: General Sir Gwyn Jenkins First Sea Lord and Chief of Naval Staff Government Keynote: Keir Mather MP Parliamentary Under Secretary of State in the Department for Transport

10:00 - 10:30 COFFEE BREAK

(sponsored by WIN GD)

10:30 - 12:00 SESSION TWO: DRIVING PROSPERITY IN A FRAGMENTING WORLD? The post-Second World War consensus that underpinned decades of global economic integration is under increasing strain. Multilateral institutions face growing scepticism, protectionist policies are on the rise, and the very concept of globalisation is being challenged. For an industry fundamentally built on the movement of goods across borders, these shifts raise urgent questions.

This session will explore whether the global shipping industry – through its scale, resilience, and operational efficiency – can offer a compelling case for continued economic interconnectedness. Can shipping serve not only as a facilitator of trade, but as a stabilising force in a fragmented world? And in managing the paradox of global ambition amid rising nationalism, what role might the industry play in shaping a renewed vision for global cooperation?

13:00 - 14:30 SESSION THREE: DECARBONISING A GLOBAL INDUSTRY IN THE CONTEMPORARY GEOPOLITICAL ENVIRONMENT? As geopolitical tensions rise and economic agendas become increasingly polarised, the effectiveness of international regulation is being tested. For the maritime sector – long reliant on globally agreed frameworks – this presents a fundamental challenge: can regulation remain coherent and enforceable in a world where consensus is harder to achieve?

This session will explore whether global regulatory mechanisms can still function effectively amid diverging national interests, and whether the International Maritime Organization’s recent progress signals the enduring relevance of multilateral institutions. It will also consider how the industry is preparing to adapt to the IMO’s GHG reduction regulatory framework, and what this means for compliance, competitiveness, and cohesion across the sector.

THRIVING AT THE INTERSECTION OF GEOPOLITICS AND INNOVATION While much of the agenda addresses how shipping can respond to the immediate challenges of a volatile and uncertain geopolitical landscape, this session turns attention to the parallel reality of rapid technological transformation. Emerging digital tools, data-driven systems, and AI-led innovations are reshaping the maritime ecosystem – offering new pathways to resilience, sustainability, and competitive advantage.

How successful it is in navigating the uncertainties of the future, enhancing sustainability, operational efficiency, effectiveness and security and creating new sources of customer value.

This session aims to challenge attendees, asking them to consider how they will prosper in an always on, dataabundant, digitally-enabled, AI-led, application-heavy world.

Breaking the Carbon-Neutral Fuel Deadlock Join Accelleron for the launch of its new report at the LISW Global Hub event Register at lisw.com

The ships are ready—so where is the fuel?

Can collaboration outpace competition for clean molecules? What will it take to unlock carbon-neutral fuel supply at scale? What needs to change to build the infrastructure, partnerships, and market signals that can accelerate progress?

Accelleron’s new report tackles these urgent questions. It offers fresh analysis and practical approaches to one of maritime’s most pressing challenges: the stalled transition to carbon-neutral fuels.

Join us for a timely and thought-provoking dialogue on the real solutions that can move shipping from stalemate to progress.

The sea occupies 71.1% of the earth’s surface.

It connects countries around the globe and has given rise to economic activities that have become the foundation of humankind’s development.

The earth’s very potential lies in its oceans.

Our home is indeed an “ocean planet.”

If you look at the world from an ocean perspective, you can see a completely different future.

As a company that has always moved forward with the sea, Mitsui O.S.K. Lines (MOL) believe its potential more than anyone.

As a Group, our mission is to draw forth this immense value shared by humankind and create sustainable growth for societies.

Now is the time for us to think and act outside the box.

MOL will utilize the knowledge we have gained through shipping to expand the field to social infrastructure companies that originate from the oceans.

When opportunity presents itself, we should take full advantage of it.

Let’s build new hope for tomorrow, together.

Inmarsat As global shipping adapts to tighter regulations, ambitious decarbonisation goals, digitalisation, and growing expectations around crew welfare, connectivity at sea has become more critical than ever. Ship owners and managers are investing in digital tools and data-driven operations to improve efficiency and performance, while seafarers increasingly expect a connected experience that mirrors life on shore. These trends are accelerating demand for fast, global, reliable, and secure internet at sea.

Inmarsat Maritime, a Viasat company, is at the forefront of meeting this challenge. Long recognised as a trusted partner to the maritime industry, Inmarsat is redefining connectivity with NexusWave – a fully managed, bonded connectivity service designed specifically for the modern demands of shipping.

NexusWave blends cutting-edge innovation with global reliability. It combines multiple networks into a single, seamless service that delivers uninterrupted high-speed connectivity through innovative network bonding technology. Unparalleled speeds – verified at up to 340 Mbps for downloads and 80 Mbps for uploads during real-world trials – are combined with 99.9% availability, unlimited data, and global coverage to ensure an office- and home-like Internet experience.

For ship operators, NexusWave supports dependable ship-to-shore communications, real-time monitoring, and bandwidth-intensive applications – helping streamline operations, improve compliance, and boost efficiency.

For crews, it means being able to browse, stream, game, video call, and stay in touch with family and friends without interruption or frustration. The result is a sea-going experience that feels far more like being on land – making life on board safer, more connected, and more fulfilling.

NexusWave is more than a connectivity service; it is a platform for transformation. It enables maritime organisations to confidently advance their digitalisation strategies while supporting sustainability efforts and improving life at sea. The service also comes with enterprise-grade cybersecurity, transparent pricing, and the assurance of being fully managed end to end – giving customers simplicity and peace of mind.

The market’s response has been strong. NexusWave has already been selected for more than 1,000 vessels, with adoption from forward-thinking operators including “K” Line, Anthony Veder, Mitsui O.S.K. Lines, Solvang, Sallaum Lines, Parlevliet & van der Plas Group, and many more. These companies see NexusWave not just as a connectivity upgrade but as a foundation for long-term competitiveness and operational excellence.

Looking ahead, NexusWave will continue to evolve. Inmarsat’s roadmap includes integration with the new ViaSat-3 Ka-band satellites, which will bring even more capacity and speed to the platform, further cementing its position as the connectivity solution of choice for the maritime industry.

At a time when vessels are becoming floating offices and homes, NexusWave delivers the high-performance connectivity experience the industry has been waiting for – built on Inmarsat’s deep maritime expertise, powered by cutting-edge technology, and ready for the future.

rif The LISW stands as a cornerstone event for the global shipping community. France is pursuing its commitment to taking a forefront position in shaping the future of the shipping industry worldwide. This dedication is underpinned by the provision of robust, business-focused tools, including the appealing and dependable French International Register (RIF), a consistent regulatory and fiscal environment, and an exceptional standard of training.

The LISW’s high-level meetings come at a pivotal time for the maritime sector. The energy transition must be not only effective and successful but also inclusive—without overlooking maritime security or global economic competition.

France’s decarbonization roadmap, introduced in April 2023 and updated in November 2024 through collaboration between the government and the maritime industry, aims to accelerate the reduction of shipping’s global carbon emissions. This roadmap is built on three pillars: energy efficiency (such as optimizing ship hulls to reduce wave friction), alternative fuels and innovative propulsion (including biofuels, e-fuels, and wind-assisted propulsion), and energy sobriety (for example, reducing vessel speeds). Additionally, it involves adapting France’s renowned training programs for merchant navy officers to align with these new challenges.

This ambition merges innovation, business opportunities, job creation, and EU support, all while aligning with France’s goal of achieving carbon neutrality by 2050—a target now shared by its global shipping partners.

As part of the solution, France offers the French International Register (RIF), a competitive and high-quality register designed for ships facing global competition. The flag’s safety performance is recognized by the ICS and in the latest international rankings: 1st on the Paris MOU white list, USCG Qualship 21 qualification. The RIF is a strategic tool for successful global decarbonization, providing access to financing for greener vessels.

It also addresses the needs of shipping stakeholders by offering tax and social efficiency, along with tailored administrative support and widely acknowledged reputation.

For seafarers, the RIF is a significant advantage. France ensures comprehensive social protection, covering medical care, sickness benefits, pensions, family allowances, maternity, disability, survivors’ benefits, occupational injuries, and unemployment benefits. Thanks to the high standard of quality and the French government’s contribution to cost sharing, the French social protection of seafarers has an exceptional quality-to-price ratio.

With a presence on five continents, France offers shipowners access to the world’s 5th largest diplomatic network and the protection of the Navy around the globe.

For those committed to shaping the future of sustainable shipping, flying the French flag is the way forward.

Make the difference, choose France!

TWENTY ESSEX Twenty Essex is home to an outstanding international shipping law practice within a top-tier commercial barristers’ set.

Our exceptional barristers provide market-leading expertise and experience in shipping, commodities and international trade, complemented by knowledge and skills drawn from the set’s work in commercial litigation, international arbitration, and public international law.

This broad, multidisciplinary perspective is essential to meeting the complex and overlapping legal and technical challenges presented by modern commercial disputes.

“Renowned for its exceptional shipping litigation practice” – Chambers & Partners UK Bar 2025: Band 1, Shipping & Commodities Since its foundation, Twenty Essex has been a market leader for the global maritime community, providing advocacy, advice and dispute management in many of the industry’s most high-profile and internationally significant shipping cases and arbitrations.

From our bases in London and Singapore, Twenty Essex provides legal services and client support across Europe, the Middle East, Asia-Pacific and the offshore markets, in proceedings centred on incidents and events taking place in every corner of the globe.

Our barristers provide English and international law advice on all maritime issues, from shipbuilding contracts and guarantees, ship sale and finance agreements, through to charterparty issues and bills of lading. With a commercial understanding of how the market works, members across all levels advise shipowners, charterers, P&I Clubs, shipyards, marine insurance underwriters, governments, state-owned enterprises and brokers.

Our members have acted in many of the industry’s most high-profile and important shipping cases, appearing frequently in precedent-setting cases in the UK Court of Appeal and Supreme Court. Current and recent cases of particular note include The Prestige, The Polar, Frangou v Frangos, MSC Flaminia, King Crude v Ridgebury, and UK P&I v Venezuela.

In addition to this knowledge of maritime law, tested in the highest courts, our barristers are able to draw on their own and other members’ expertise in those diverse areas of law that are increasingly drawn into the orbit of traditional shipping and trade disputes. Twenty Essex is recognised for its “unique combination of expertise in energy, environmental and maritime law” (Chambers & Partners 2025), and other complementary specialisms across the set include banking, commodities, fraud, insurance, asset recovery, sanctions, and jurisdictional and conflict of laws matters.

Members are also affiliated with the world’s leading arbitration associations, and have substantial arbitration, mediation and alternative dispute resolution practices. Twenty Essex has an established reputation for advocacy in section 67, 68 and 69 Arbitration Act applications.

In this constantly changing environment, providing exceptional service to solicitors and lay clients matters more than ever. Practice director Arron Zitver leads the clerking team for our shipping practice, recognised by clients as “responsive, personable and knowledgeable” (Chambers & Partners 2025). Our innovative thematic team structure means clerking teams develop deep familiarity with a key segment of chambers’ business, ensures continuous engagement and support to clients through inquiries and instructions, and provides both for tailored service in specialist shipping law and proactive team-building among barristers with related and complementary expertise – whatever the case requires. www.twentyessex.com
