Strategic Partners
International Maritime Organization
IMO - the International Maritime Organization - is the United Nations specialized agency with responsibility for the safety and security of shipping and the prevention of marine and atmospheric pollution by ships. IMO's work supports the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
“The single biggest challenge we face is the battle against global warming and climate change. We need more collaborative action to speed up research into emission- cutting technology in the maritime sector and into zero- and low-carbon marine fuels. Above all, we need to make sure we leave no one behind.”
– IMO Secretary-General Mr. Kitack Lim
Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore
The Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore (MPA) is a statutory board under the Ministry of Transport, Singapore. MPA's mission is to develop and promote Singapore as a premier global hub port and an international maritime centre, and to advance and safeguard Singapore's strategic maritime interests.
“To combat climate change, we need to accelerate research and development, test-bedding and the adoption of green fuels and technologies. To succeed, the maritime community must move together on this decarbonisation pathway with purposeful partnerships between governments and industry. NextGEN will provide a useful platform for maritime stakeholders to share capabilities, expertise and resources.”
