MERSEY MARITIME LAUNCH AWARDS INDUSTRY VOTING PLATFORM

Regional cluster organisation, Mersey Maritime, are delighted to announce that the Mersey Maritime Industry Awards (MMIA) industry voting platform is now live.

The MMIAs are widely recognised as the UK’s leading regional maritime awards ceremony, celebrating the achievements of the industry’s most outstanding companies and individuals across the Liverpool City Region and wider North West.

The finalists were selected after a rigorous evaluation process, involving 14 judges, compiled of national, regional and local industry experts, business leaders and government representatives.

The industry voting platform is being launched on Monday 16th September 2024, which will give local, national, and international industry members the opportunity to vote for the final winners. All winners will be unveiled at the awards dinner in Liverpool on Friday 25th October 2024 at Liverpool Cathedral.

Voting will be open from Monday 16th September until Sunday 29th September. Mersey Maritime would like to wish all finalists the very best of luck and to remind them not to forget to promote themselves vigorously in the next couple of weeks!
