SHIPPING MARKET INSIGHT - SOPHIE COTZIAS
Intermodal2018 marks quite a few milestones for Greek Shipping. No need to detail again the greatness of Greek Shipping or the singular position that Greek seafarers hold Internationally. We’re proud that our firm has entered the 125-year frame and we see the continued ‘success story’ having properly entered the third century of operations for the family business established back in 1893 on the island of Syros, by the undersigned’s great granddad, Nicolas D. Cotzias. The fourth generation of the Cotzias dynasty actively continues to be associated with the best aspects of
Shipping.

Another milestone is that Posidonia became ‘middle-aged’ in 2018, having reached its 50th year anniversary. The long week, or arguably a fortnight, that brought an alleged €62 million to the Greek economy -through the many professions that busied themselves with the influx of an excess of 22,000 visitors- is over. Long memories of ‘young at heart’ shipping executives can remember the 1969 first Posidonia in Zappeion, followed by the move to the OLP building of the Piraeus Port Authorities between 1976-2004, then a short pass, thrice, through the old airport in Ellinikon, to ‘land’ in 2012 in the grand expanse of the organized Metropolitan Expo that also housed this year’s Posidonia.

The inspired Vokos family – close friends of the undersigned- have been making history since the brilliant and original idea to celebrate the formation of Piraeus as THE global Shipping center through the inception of POSIDONIA. It has grown in fame and size having reached the incredible participation of well over 22,000 visitors of 1,920 exhibiting companies from 96 countries. The President of the UGS, Theodore Veniamis, rightly pointed that ‘Posidonia’… ‘spreads a sense of enthusiasm among the shipping community’. The optimism deriving from the Posidonia uplift may also prove to generate further positive market sentiment.

Both the professionals and the other hard-working men and women who supported all aspects of the service industry attaching to the exhibition were exemplary. A habit which we witness every two years and it defies the external belief that we Greeks lack organizational skills and commitment to hard work.

An interesting item of news to this particular Posidonia was the huge influx of ICT (Information Communication Technology) companies, -circa 60- that see the future developing in the way of: location specific weather forecasting, cloud gathering of ship data, cyber protection, cargo tracking, improved crew management, telemedicine for crew and all the technology applications that will serve the future of the automated vessels, leading eventually to unmanned smart ships. This year’s exhibiting ICT companies came from 18 countries from all over the world and all aspire to redefine the shipping business. All these innovations were presented in the numerous forums and discussions held at the Posidonia site.
 
And to close this celebratory Insight, I heard on the official Posidonia opening video an impressive claim, that if one would line up all Greek vessels you can reach Jupiter, the Zeus (Dias) of the Greek Gods! Neptune/Poseidon rejoice, it all started in Greece!
