JSEA have been participating in the Posidonia exhibition since the first edition was held in 1969. On their 27th year, JSEA will represent the Japanese shipbuilding industry at the exhibition with the Japanese Marine Equipment Association (JSMEA) and nine shipbuilding companies in Hall 4, Booth 4.202.
Earlier this year, JSEA launched a digital platform that presents a virtual exhibition hall space to demonstrate the presence of the Japanese shipbuilding industry and to provide information to interested parties not attending in-person exhibitions. The platform features an online reproduction of the actual Japan Pavilion and visitors to the platform can access the same content as that displayed at the in-person booth at the Posidonia exhibition. This includes videos, panels, catalogues, and images of JSEA co-exhibitor ships.
