SMM 2000 Set

For Hamburg

Reporting this year's

SMM 2000 Shipbuild- ing, Machinery &

Marine Technology

Exhibition as "booked out," Hamburg Messe is dubbing the exhibition as one that is multi-cultural and lingual — the bi- annual conference is predicted to attract more than 1,000 exhibitors from 42 countries. Designating Spain as this year's partner country, the exhi- bition, which has been dubbed the leading trade fair of world shipbuild- ing, SMM 2000, will take place at

Hamburg Exhibition Centre from Sep- tember 26-30, 2000.

Holding a place as the main interna- tional forum for executives in the ship- ping and shipbuilding sector for many years, SMM has further consolidated its top position with its "Hall of

Nations" strategy involving grouping national pavilions under one roof, which was implemented for the first time at SMM '98.

At SMM 2000, Korea and the

Netherlands will, for the first time ever, mull the possibility of staging a joint presentation to achieve greater international presence — joining vari- ous countries — such as the People's

Republic of China, the U.K., Japan,

Russia and the U.S.

The growing number of joint ven- tures and alliances is meeting market requirements for complete systems in all areas of shipbuilding. The interna- tional trade audience of SMM 2000 will be able to observe this process for navigation and ship management sys- tems, propulsion units, pumps, waste disposal plants and other types of equipment. In addition, the conference is receiving support of the Dutch Mar- itime Export Forum; Holland Marine

Equipment Association (HME) is organizing a joint presentation on the international "stage" for the first time at SMM 2000. As many as 23 marine equipment suppliers have already reg- istered for this joint stand, which will present marine electronics, automation and control systems, components for propulsion and rudder systems, refrig- erating plants, lifeboats and work- boats, as well as products in other areas.
