The forum, to be held on the DAMISE Digital Platform, will begin on 20 July 2026. The event will bring together government institutions, industry representatives, financial organizations, academics, and business leaders from Türkiye and Nigeria to discuss key topics such as shipbuilding, ship repair and maintenance, maritime infrastructure, maritime investments, and skilled workforce development.
The program will include strategic panels and webinars, digital exhibition areas, international B2B business meetings, live press and media sessions, and digital product launches where companies will present their products and services in multiple languages.
