The highly anticipated Hamburg International Maritime Exhibition (SMM) will gather global maritime professionals to showcase the latest technologies and innovations.
The SMM began in 1963 and has since grown to become the largest, most prestigious, and most influential professional international trade exhibition in the global maritime sector. Organized by the Hamburg Messe und Congress GmbH, with co-organization by the German Shipbuilding and Ocean Industries Association, the German Engineering Federation, and the German Electrical and Electronic Manufacturers' Association, the event integrates shipbuilding, machinery, marine service and ocean technology.
Hamburg, with its highly developed transportation network, is an ideal location for this international event. The city is crisscrossed by numerous waterways and boasts over 1,500 bridges. The main waterways are connected by tunnels beneath the riverbeds, including the world’s longest urban underground tunnel. Located over 110 kilometers from the North Sea, the port is about 120 kilometers north of the Elbe River mouth, with channel depths ranging from 13 to 16 meters, allowing large ocean-going vessels to reach the port directly. The port connects with over 300 shipping routes to major ports worldwide.
The 2018 edition of the Hamburg International Maritime Exhibition was a resounding success, with a net exhibition area exceeding 93,000 square meters. The event featured 2,249 companies, enterprises, and associations from 67 countries and regions, including the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, China, the United States, France, Sweden, Russia, Spain, Italy, Canada, Turkey, Japan, South Korea, and New Zealand. Nearly 200 Chinese companies participated, occupying an exhibition area of over 1,000 square meters. The exhibition attracted over 50,000 professional visitors from 125 countries and regions worldwide, setting new records for attendance.
As we look forward to the 2024 Hamburg International Maritime Exhibition, the event promises to continue its tradition of excellence, providing a platform for industry professionals to network, share knowledge, and explore the latest innovations in the maritime sector. With its rich history, prestigious reputation, and strategic location, the SMM remains a cornerstone event for the global maritime community.
