EUROPORT ISTANBULEUROPORT ISTANBUL

EUROPORT ISTANBUL is a premier exhibition co-organized by Ahoy (the organizer of Europort Netherlands, ranked second among European maritime exhibitions) and the Turkish Chamber of Shipping. By introducing the renowned Europort brand, it has established a flagship event in the heart of the Eurasian continent. First launched in 1991, it has now grown into the largest international maritime exhibition in the region.

EUROPORT ISTANBUL offers unparalleled business networking opportunities for exhibitors and buyers in Turkey's maritime sector. During the event, exhibitors engage in face-to-face discussions with buyers to explore technological innovations, drive profit growth, and collaboratively address critical industry demands. The exhibition gathers high-quality enterprises and professional buyers, effectively facilitating interaction and business connections between both parties, providing exhibitors with a prime venue for securing contracts.

Turkey is one of the countries with a rapidly developing shipbuilding industry. Its share of the global shipbuilding market has risen from 0.9% to 1.4%, ranking fifth worldwide. Its exported vessels primarily consist of high-value-added, custom-built ships that Chinese and South Korean shipyards cannot undertake. Currently, 35% of the marine equipment required in Turkey relies on imports, presenting widespread business opportunities. As a gateway to Europe, Central Asia, and the Middle East, Turkey boasts a long-standing maritime history and is globally recognized as a prominent shipbuilding and shipping nation.

At EUROPORT ISTANBUL, you can explore cutting-edge technologies, participate in industry-specific panel discussions and seminars, and expand your business volume. As the most powerful trade and marketing platform in the sector, the exhibition brings together all stakeholders from Turkey's shipbuilding and subcontracting industries alongside the global maritime community, laying a solid foundation for enhanced national and international cooperation.
