Union of Greek Shipowners

The number of successful women assuming prominent roles in the Greek business world is rapidly on the rise. 

The Union of Greek Shipowners boasts a female president, Melina Travlos, a development of significant importance not only domestically but also globally, given that a quarter of the world's commercial fleet is controlled by Greek interests.

Posidonia, the biennial shipping fair to be held this summer on June 3-7, remains steadily committed to attracting younger generations to the shipping industry, as is evident in the launch of the Posidonia Masterclass in Shipping online course.

Decarbonization of shipping will be on the radar more intensely than ever before at Posidonia 2024, the industry's biggest exhibition that will take place in Athens on June 3-7.

The industry, which will convene at the Metropolitan Expo center next to Athens International Airport, intends to debate ways of achieving sustainability targets set by new environmental regulations.
