Navigate: where the marine industry, shipping companies and maritime logistics meet

SeaFocus and Navigate 2020 expo unite to co-create a high-quality conference event

SeaFocus and Navigate 2020 have formed an associate partnership to co-create an attractive, substance-rich and high-quality conference event as one of the highlights of the Navigate Maritime Trade Fair in Turku January 2020.

Together, these two organisations want to initiate international discussion on the importance of maritime education, and how it should match industry needs in the future.

Gender, demographics, education, trade patterns and environment

Navigate 2020 assigned a student team to work on a case in the Intelligence Hunt 5 project. The team consisted of students from Germany, Ukraine, Russia, Sweden and Finland.

The students researched how gender, demographics, trade patterns and environment reflect future education and how the maritime industry will manage and monetise the employment shift. The team was led by expert mentors and the results were shown at Nor-Shipping in June.
