GreenMED had the privilege of participating in the European Maritime Day (EMD) 2024, held on May 31st, 2024, in Svendborg, Denmark. The event provided an exciting platform for GreenMED to adopt innovative ideas and expand its research efforts, while fostering connections to strengthen its network and enhance collaborations. The team was thrilled to contribute to both a pitch session on green shipping and a workshop on blue careers for a sustainable blue economy. These sessions offered a valuable opportunity to present GreenMED’s vision and progress. Prof. Nikolaos P. Ventikos, Eirini-Asimina Stamatopoulou, and Manolis Annetis shared insights into the project’s commitment to promoting sustainability within the maritime sector. GreenMED extends its profound gratitude to the World Ocean Council, the European Community Shipowners’ Associations (ECSA), the National Technical University of Athens, the European Environment Agency, WaterborneTP, SDG4MED, CINEA – the European Climate, Infrastructure and Environment Executive Agency, and the WestMED initiative for their exceptional support and organization of this impactful event.
