PTC announced the winners of the “My PTC GMP
Journey” photo contest on June 24 as part of the
company’s Day of the Seafarer (DOTS) celebration.
Taking inspiration from the International Maritime
Organization’s (IMO) theme for this year’s DOTS
campaign, the contest invited Global Maritime
professionals (GMPs) to send photos of their first
and most recent voyage while sharing the changes
that they have seen in the maritime industry
throughout the years.

Winning first place was Ugland’s Jerome
Concepcion who shared how advancements in the
safety of vessels and their passengers, improved
means of communication with his loved ones at
home, and increased awareness of his strengths
as a seafarer are among the most significant
changes he observed during his four years of
working at sea.
