Italy Branch Launch

19 Jun 2026 09:30AM - 05:30PM ITS Accademia Marittima Meridionale | Via Cocumella n. 8, Sant’Agnello (NA), Sorrento, Campania, Italy Branch Italy

The Italy Branch of The Nautical Institute is delighted to announce its official launch event in Sorrento on 19 June.

This full-day gathering will bring together industry leaders, policymakers, representatives from maritime training centres and sector associations to discuss two closely interconnected priorities for the maritime sector: the energy transition within the maritime industry, and the education and training of maritime professionals, students and cadets.

Discussions will focus on the challenges and opportunities arising from decarbonisation, the adoption of new technologies and alternative fuels, and the development of skills, competencies and educational frameworks required by maritime training centers, academies and institutions to support these transformations within the industry.

 

Programme and other details are still being finalised, but the incoming President of The Nautical Institute, Mr Walter Vervloesem FNI, is confirmed to give an opening address.  Lunch and other refreshments will be provided.

Attendance is free and open to all members of The Nautical Institute and other local industry representatives.

For full details, and to register to attend, please contact the Branch directly at italy.branch@nautinst.org before 20 May.

We hope to see you there!
