is delighted to welcome world-leading classification society DNV as a platinum sponsor.
DNV’s support highlights the importance of London as a global maritime hub. From maritime finance and law to cutting-edge innovation, London sits at the heart of the international maritime ecosystem and holds a special place in DNV’s global network.
Across the UK and Ireland, DNV has more than 1,200 experts working with energy majors, shipowners, managers, charterers, brokers, ports, educational institutions, digital service providers, and legal and finance bodies. Together, they help UK and Irish companies not only face today’s challenges and risks, but also take advantage of tomorrow’s opportunities.
The maritime industry is undergoing a significant transformation. Digitalisation is reshaping how shipping operates, and tighter emissions-reduction regulations are pushing the industry to rethink traditional approaches. DNV’s London office connects customers to DNV’s global know-how and expertise, ensuring they stay ahead in this rapidly evolving landscape.
During LISW25, which takes place from 15 to 19 September 2025, DNV’s experts from across the world will come together to take part in events, panel discussions, and industry-shaping conversations.
“LISW 2025 offers a chance for the industry to come together to tackle key challenges and discuss innovative solutions,” said Knut Ørbeck-Nilssen, CEO of DNV Maritime. “Though decarbonization progress has slowed, we are entering a period of technological innovation that will shape our future. Strategic decisions and investments today – focused on energy efficiency and digital solutions – are vital to reducing costs and achieving emissions goals. Now more than ever, meeting places like LISW are crucial for fostering the collaborations and innovations needed to drive sustainable progress.”
Welcoming DNV’s support of LISW25, Llewellyn Bankes-Hughes, co-Founder and joint-CEO of LISW, commented: “It is great to have such a long-standing supporter of London International Shipping Week remaining onboard for 2025. DNV’s highly-skilled team of specialists will contribute a great deal to our industry-leading discussions.”
