Seatrade Maritime Awards in London recognises 15 winners

Posted on: 10 November 2022

In the first Seatrade Maritime Awards since before the pandemic, the industry gathered once again at the landmark Guildhall in London to celebrate winners and network with friends and colleagues in-person.

Welcoming the guests, Seatrade Maritime Chairman Emeritus, Chris Hayman, said: “It is hard to believe that it is more than three years since we were last able to gather here for the last Seatrade Awards dinner. It is great to be back.

“This evening we will have a chance to see and hear how far and how fully the industry has transformed its working practices since 1989 when the first Seatrade Awards were launched – in terms of sustainability, diversity, investment in people, and ethical practice.”

Hayman also highlighted how the shipping industry was “there and delivered when the world economy desperately needed the arteries of trade to keep going” and paid special mention to the seagoing workforce.

Throughout the evening, 15 winners were announced – each taking home one of maritime’s most prestigious honours – a Seatrade Maritime Award.

The first winners to take to the stage were the recipients of the industry awards judged by a total of four independent panels, made up of leading personalities, academics and thought-leaders who dedicated their time and expertise to evaluate each nomination, providing a transparent judging process for all involved.

A popular favourite – the Editorial Choice Awards – came next and saw winners selected from Seatrade Maritime’s editorial team which has a keen eye on the movers and shakers in the industry.
