CrewConnect Global is the annual meeting place for the crewing industry bringing you a solutions-based approach to recruitment, MET (Marine Education and Training), and seafarer safety and welfare. This year the conference will focus on taking a critical look at Crew Supply.

To maximize the opportunities that are within the Blue Economy the maritime sector needs to cater to the population-growing industry. South Africa has the potential to become a global supplier of high-quality, highly skilled ship crews.

Mr. Modipane attended the conference with a mandate to establish collaborative partnerships with international crewing agencies/companies for the enhancement of South African seafarer/crew placement.
