SMI magazine is a bi-monthly publication focusing on issues that influence and affect the way today’s merchant fleets are managed. Published and dispatched every second month in hard copy as well as in various digital formats, it has a library of back issues posted on the SMI website for ease of reference https:// shipmanagementinternational.com/latest-issue/ SMI website and Daily e-Newsletter is a 24/7 online news service with stories hand-picked for their relevance by our experienced team of editors.

A round-up of latest stories is also sent out daily, at 11am UK time, as an e-newsletter to our ever-growing list of subscribers.

Live Debates and Round Tables featuring leading industry figures and live audiences have been a key characteristic of SMI from the outset, and during the pandemic and afterwards some moved exclusively online.
