PROGRAM
International Maritime Mobility Forum 2025Dynasty, Main Wing 2F
To meet the growing global demand for sustainable and intelligent advanced maritime mobility, the Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries (MOF) and the Korea Research Institute of Ships and Ocean Engineering (KRISO) will host the International Maritime Mobility Forum 2025 on October 21, 2025, at the Dynasty Hall of the Shilla Hotel in Seoul. The event will be held as an official side event of Korea Maritime Week 2025.
This year's forum focuses on building a next-generation maritime mobility ecosystem by integrating cutting-edge technologies from sectors such as Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) and autonomous vehicles, while fostering international cooperation through expert dialogue.
The program features three thematic sessions:
· Session 1: The Future - "The Future of Advanced Maritime Mobility – Beyond the Boundaries of Mobility"
· Session 2: The Present - "The Development of Northern Sea Route(NSR) – Breaking through the Limits of Maritime Mobility"
· Session 3: The People - "Advanced Marine Mobility Envisioned by the Next Generation"
The forum aims to accelerate innovation and shape the future of maritime mobility through global, multidisciplinary cooperation.
