Networking & Events

We offer a wide range of networking events and specialist activities to support businesses and promote the dynamism of the maritime industry at a local, regional and national level. 

During the course of the year, we typically hold: 

  • A monthly ‘Face-2-Face’ networking breakfast or digital equivalent which casts a spotlight on an individual company or group of members – our core and most popular activity.
  • Specialist forums which deep dive into aspects of the industry and are available to members. 
  • Bespoke briefings on subjects that are critical to the future of the maritime industry.
  • Our flagship annual conference, The Maritime Exchange: a comprehensive and innovative thought leadership event.
  • The United Kingdom’s most established and largest sector celebration event, the Mersey Maritime Industry Awards.
