SMM, the prominent worldwide maritime profession reasonable, has actually been delayed to 2-5 February 2021 in reaction to the coronavirus pandemic as well as its international influence on significant occasions as well as worldwide taking a trip.
“The continued highly dynamic development of COVID-19 and the resulting ban on major events have left us no other choice but to postpone SMM to next year. Finding a suitable new timeframe for SMM was not an easy task for us, and we are happy we have been able to do so,” claimed Bernd Aufderheide, President as well as Chief Executive Officer of Hamburg Messe und Congress.
Following extreme assessments with the exhibitor board of advisers, Hamburg Messe und Congress as well as its companions as well as various other exhibitor agents have actually settled on the brand-new days, from 2 to 5 February 2021. This suggests SMM will certainly be the brand-new year’s very first worldwide celebration of the maritime market.
“We will offer the global maritime community an extraordinary, more compact SMM in February 2021. Together we will overcome this crisis and host an SMM that will live up to its own, high standards. We are looking forward to welcoming everybody back,” claimed Bernd Aufderheide.
Originally SMM was to happen from 8 to 11 September 2020.
