Hong Kong Maritime Week (HKMW) 2025 will run from November 16 to 22, featuring over 50 events organised by more than 70 international, Chinese Mainland and local organisers.

Marking its ninth edition since 2016, this year’s HKMW is the first-ever edition following the establishment of the Maritime & Port Development Board (MPDB) on July 1 this year.

With the main theme “Navigating to a Greener Future” and the tagline “Propel Hong Kong”, HKMW 2025 gathers policymakers, senior representatives of international organisations as well as industrial luminaries and practitioners to share their perspectives and discuss topics of interest to the global maritime industry.

Participants will be immersed in a vibrant programme featuring flagship forums, high-level seminars and public outreach initiatives.

Apart from the opening ceremony, major highlights include the MPDB Flagship Session; the World Maritime Merchants Forum 2025; the Asian Logistics, Maritime & Aviation Conference; and the International Bunker Industry Association Annual Convention 2025 to be held in Hong Kong for the first time.

Activities such as the Maritime Museum’s Free Family Fun Day will be in place to engage members of the public. Two exclusive interviews with MPDB Chairman Moses Cheng and HKMW Task Force Chairman Wellington Koo, will be aired on TVB Jade at around 7.30pm on November 17 and 18.

Additionally, a series of short videos will be shared across various social media channels highlighting Hong Kong's leading role as an international maritime hub.
