Event Description:

The Hong Kong Maritime and Port Development Board (“HKMPDB”) is teaming up with Xinde Marine News for the very first time to present the Hong Kong–Shanghai Maritime Connect – and it’s happening on 24 September 2026 at the Grand Kempinski Hotel Shanghai.

Under the theme “Empowering with Finance, Safeguarding with Law: Hong Kong and Shanghai Join Forces to Navigate Towards Net Zero”, we are bringing together top-tier representatives from the shipping, maritime services, finance, legal sectors across both cities to discuss on two key issues:

✶ How can green finance accelerate the shipping industry’s green transformation?

✶ How can high-value-added maritime services propel our international maritime centres to the next level?

Expect a keynote address, dynamic panel discussions, and a networking luncheon afterwards – because real opportunities are born over good conversation.

Hong Kong is China’s Southern Gateway – a unique bridge between the Chinese Mainland and the global maritime industry, thanks to our unique advantages under the “One Country, Two Systems” and its deep-rooted strengths in ship finance, maritime law, insurance, and professional services. Shanghai, as the powerhouse of the Yangtze River Economic Belt, is charging ahead in green energy and digital–intelligent transformation, backed by immense port throughput and a full-spectrum shipping ecosystem.

This Exchange is where these two maritime heavyweights meet – to connect, to collaborate, and to seize the opportunities of the industry’s green revolution together.

Come join us. Spaces are limited, so don't wait! See you on 24 September in Shanghai!
