Celebrating the industry and our marine environment this National Maritime Week
SEPTEMBER 29, 2023
The PTC Group Shipping Cluster celebrated National Maritime Week by highlighting this year's theme of "MARPOL @ 50: Our Commitment Goes On," which spotlights the IMO's marine protection treaty and promotes discussions on the next phase of actions by the IMO and the industry to further protect the planet and the oceans.
The PTC Group, in its commitment to moving a sustainable world, embraces this call through various initiatives that help promote people, planet, and prosperity.

By coming together and shining a light on the maritime sector, we inspire positive change, foster cooperation, and build a more sustainable future for all by highlighting the importance of the oceans and marine resources. PTC joined hands with the International Maritime Organization (IMO) and other organizations, locally and worldwide, as it illuminated First Maritime Place (FMP) with blue light from September 25 to 28.
