SEADEVCON

Relaunched as ​SEADEVCON ​in 2018, it has now developed into an industry conference bringing together experts from the maritime business, representatives from shipping companies, researchers and academics, developers of hard- and software technologies, NGOs, and environmental activists to present attempts at technical solutions, to discuss the future of the sector, and to look at the ports of tomorrow, with a special focus on reducing industry-caused emissions. We are committed to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals... In 2019, we introduced the ​SEADEVCON Maritime Award​, a prize to recognize annually a personality whose "lifetime achievement is exemplary for the fight for a sustainable and respectful use of the world's seas". The first winner of the award was the author and expedition leader Arved Fuchs, introduced by the ocean yachtsman Boris Herrmann.
