Introducing Advanced Maritime Technology

Launching June 2026, Advanced Maritime Technology brings together the former Electric & Hybrid Marine and Autonomous Ship events into one expanded, future focused, mega event.  Built directly on attendee feedback and the realities of a rapidly evolving sector, the new format delivers deeper insight, clearer structure, and more opportunity for meaningful discussion. 

To ensure every key topic receives the attention and discussion it deserves, the event now features four dedicated, co-located conference streams, each addressing critical pillars of the modern maritime landscape: 

Electrification & Hybridization 
Focusing on the core technologies driving cleaner propulsion, covering batteries, fuel cells, power distribution and control, alternative fuels, propulsion systems, integration, and case studies. 

Automation & Autonomy 
Reflecting the sector’s shift toward practical, near-term automation, this stream explores shipboard automation, remote operation and maintenance, and efficiency enhancing technologies that avoid the regulatory challenges of full autonomy. 

Infrastructure 
Addressing the portside transition, including shore power, charging systems, alternative fuel bunkering, and the wider infrastructure required to support sustainable maritime operations. 

Regulation & Finance 
A platform for navigating fast approaching compliance deadlines, investment strategies, and the financial implications of maritime decarbonization and evolving regulatory frameworks. 

Designed around the industry’s needs, the 2026 programme features a significantly expanded number of panel discussions, offers greater focus on fast-growing areas such as infrastructure, regulation, and finance, and takes a practical approach to automation, prioritising technologies that deliver immediate operational benefits. 

Advanced Maritime Technology provides the most focused, relevant and forward-looking environment for maritime professionals, bringing clarity, expertise, and the full smart ship ecosystem together in one place. 

Further details of this expanded collaborative space will be launched over the coming weeks with a brand-new website.  

Join us at the RAI Amsterdam this June for the greatest opportunity to connect, discuss and progress your business.
