We are pleased to invite you to the 2026 Smart Green Energy Maritime Conference. Amid the global paradigm shift toward a sustainable future, the shipbuilding and maritime industries are entering a new phase that goes beyond technological development toward practical implementation and commercialization (Post-Decarbonization). This conference will serve as a platform to explore actionable strategies across the industrial ecosystem through the convergence of next-generation energy technologies and digital innovation, while shaping the future vision of Korea’s shipbuilding and maritime industries together with global leaders.The 2026 conference will focus on the theme, “Decarbonization and Digital Transformation: Execution Strategies for the Shipbuilding and Maritime Industry”, aiming to become an integrated platform that connects not only technological discussions but also ship orders, operations, supply chains, finance, and equipment competitiveness. In particular, the conference will feature in-depth discussions on global regulatory compliance strategies in response to strengthened greenhouse gas regulations by the International Maritime Organization (IMO), real-world applications of alternative fuels such as hydrogen, methanol, and ammonia, as well as AI- and data-driven operational optimization solutions addressing key industry challenges.
In addition to government agencies, global energy companies, and shipbuilding leaders from Korea and abroad, innovative SMEs and startups will also participate, providing opportunities to build a collaborative ecosystem through technology pitching sessions and investment networking.
The 2026 Smart Green Energy Maritime Conference promises to be a platform where knowledge and technology, industry and policy converge to create practical business value, offering participants valuable insights and opportunities for collaboration.
We look forward to your interest and participation in shaping new standards for Korea’s shipbuilding and maritime industries amid the waves of change. Thank you.
