The event promises to drive critical discussions on the Blue Economy, maritime logistics, ports, shipping, shipbuilding, labor standards, and sustainability. As India strengthens its position in the global maritime sector, Sagarmanthan serves as a crucial platform for shaping the future of the global maritime landscape.
