SHIPEC America - How It Works
A Business Forum for the Shipping Industry
How It Works
How Are Appointments Made?
- A registered delegate will be sent a user name and password for our website and be asked to complete a profile of their company.
- The profiles of the shipowners/operators will outline details of their requirements for the next 12 months including the number of ships owned or managed and their budget for new buildings and refurbishments for the next 12-24 months.
- The profiles which can only be viewed by registered delegates, will be used by delegates during the meeting selection process and will be printed in the event directory.
- Delegates will select which companies they would like to meet by visiting our website.
- A personal meeting schedule is then drawn up for each company
The Format
- Each shipowner/operator is allocated their own meeting desk in the room where the meetings program takes place over 2 days.
- The vendors move around the meeting room to have meetings with the shipowners/operators
- All meetings last 20 minutes.
The Social Program
Following the business meetings, there will be an organized program of activities allowing delegates to network in a more informal way. There will be a welcome reception and buffet dinner on arrival followed by an evening out on the second night and finally a farewell dinner at the hotel on the last night.
