Every two years in Hamburg in early September. The fair has run since 1963.
Very much so — LNG, methanol, ammonia, hydrogen and fuel cells all have major presence. The green-maritime transition is the defining topic.
Yes — offshore wind has a strong presence as a growth sector for many maritime suppliers. WindEnergy Hamburg co-locates with SMM in some years.
Nor-Shipping in Oslo (biennial, alternating years with SMM) is the other major maritime fair globally. Most maritime companies attend both — they complement each other on the calendar.
Three days is standard. Day one for overview, day two and three for in-depth supplier and customer conversations. Many shipowners use SMM for compressed contract negotiations.
