On the occasion of the Singapore Maritime Week 2025, the French Chamber of Commerce in Singapore, the Embassy of France in Singapore and the General Directorate of Maritime Affairs, Fisheries and Aquaculture (DGAMPA) will organise an exclusive French-Singaporean Maritime Roundtable Discussion and Networking Event.
As part of the Year of Sustainability France-Singapore (JYOS), and marking the 10th anniversary of the Paris Agreement on Climate Change, this event will bring together over 200 distinguished guests from the maritime industry in France, Singapore, and the broader international and regional ecosystem.
During the event, two panels with key experts will showcase Singaporean and France's pivotal contributions to maritime innovation and collaboration across the maritime ecosystem. The first panel on “New Technologies for Sustainable Vessels” will discuss solutions such as wind propulsion and energy efficient vessel design, contributing to a cleaner and more efficient maritime future. The session will also address the role of the French International Register in enabling sustainable shipping. The second panel on “Collaboration for a Sustainable Maritime Future” will delve into the green and digital shipping corridors, sustainable fuel adoption, and financing mechanisms that drive decarbonisation efforts across the supply chain.
