The maritime community is set to gather in Mumbai this November for a high-impact workshop on marine insurance, designed to equip professionals with practical tools for navigating today’s complex risk landscape.
Shipping Academic Conferences, in collaboration with Marex Media, will host the event titled Navigating Risk, Securing Trade: Practical Mastery in Marine Insurance on Thursday, 20th November 2025 at Fairfield by Marriott International Airport, Mumbai.
The programme will be led by Mr Punit Oza, Founder & Director of Maritime NXT and President of the Institute of Chartered Shipbrokers (ICS), supported by a panel of leading professionals from the allied marine sector.
Unlike traditional seminars, the workshop will feature a role-playing exercise that places participants at the heart of a real-world trade scenario:
• A container shipment of electronics from Shanghai to Hamburg
• A pollution incident complicating the voyage
• Delegates tasked with navigating liability, claims, and insurance responses in real time
This immersive format is designed to bridge theory with practice, offering attendees a rare opportunity to test their decision-making skills under simulated pressure.
With global trade facing heightened risks—from environmental incidents to shifting regulatory frameworks—marine insurance has become a critical pillar of resilience. The Mumbai workshop aims to provide not just knowledge, but practical mastery, ensuring participants leave with actionable insights to apply in their daily roles.
Industry stakeholders, shipowners, brokers, insurers, and allied professionals are encouraged to attend this exclusive event.
