Last week, we had the pleasure of hosting a hands-on Shipping Management Summer School, during which participants had the chance to experience top quality lectures and visit distinguished Greek companies. The

Shipping Summer School was organized in collaboration with the Hellenic Management Centre / Institute of Chartered Shipbrokers Greek Branch (HMC/ICS). We would like to thank  Danaos Shipping Co, Spanopoulos Shipyard and SEAVEN Tanker & Dry Management for their  hospitality and their presentations.

Summer school participants were excited for the content and the learning experience.
