What to expect at the SMM

The SMM in Hamburg is the world’s leading trade fair for the maritime industry. Every two years, more than 2,000 exhibitors and around 40,000 trade visitors from over 100 countries meet here. It showcases innovations across the entire maritime value chain.

The trade fair is considered the central meeting point for shipbuilding, suppliers, offshore, ports, and maritime services. Anyone preparing investment decisions or seeking to enter new markets will find consolidated market transparency, reliable contacts, and concrete project opportunities here.

Exhibitors and Brands

At SMM, shipyards, system suppliers, engine manufacturers, equipment providers, classification societies, and digital solution providers present themselves. Leading brands from Europe and Asia showcase propulsion systems, automation, safety technology, and sustainable technologies. Many world premieres are introduced here for the first time.

Trade Visitors and Decision-Makers

You will meet managing directors, technical managers, buyers, and project leaders. The proportion of decision-makers is high. Discussions take place on equal footing. Contracts are prepared and projects are specified directly on site. This makes the trade fair equally relevant for suppliers and investors.

Trends, Innovation, and Order Business

The focus is on alternative propulsion systems, decarbonization, digital fleet management, and autonomous systems. In my experience, solid leads are generated here, as many shipping companies have already defined their investment budgets. SMM is not just a showcase, but an active marketplace for order business.
