Numerous prospects can be mentioned, related to various aspects of the maritime industry: technological and environmental, economic and financial, managerial and operational.

During 2022, the shipping industry dealt with the fallout of the Covid-19 pandemic and serious geopolitical tensions.

Over the years, Greek shipping has always adapted to global requirements and now we are seeing the Greek market in the forefront of the industry in terms of complying with greener shipping standards and rising to the challenges of maintaining the global supply chain.

This year which is coming to its end was a very challenging year for the world and the shipping industry.

Predictions are always risky but overall I am optimistic that 2023 will be a good shipping year.

Reflecting on the last 12 months, it seems that 2022 is closing on a positive note for the shipping sector, despite the challenges we are still facing today, specifically the Energy Crisis, the Russia – Ukraine War and the Decarbonization.
