The SMM 2016 will be held from 6th – 9th September 2016 in Hamburg. SMM is one of the maritime industry’s most important trade fairs , especially when it comes to shipbuilding / supplies. It provides a strong networking forum for shipping stakeholders with over 2,100 international exhibitors and 50,000 trade visitors in a 90,000 m2 surface, as well as numerous side-events.
Together with ship registration company EuroFlag Services and the Luxembourg Chamber of Commerce in Germany, the Luxembourg Maritime Cluster would like to offer an interesting opportunity to visit the fair and also, for those interested, assess the possibility of becoming exhibitors in 2018.
