Apply for a press pass

We welcome press pass applications from qualified members of the Press. We offer press passes to qualified professional journalists as a service to the industry, to add value for exhibitors and sponsors, and to help promote the event. Press passes at CMA Shipping provide access to all conference sessions, the Supplier Expo, and all networking functions organised by Seatrade Maritime.
 
A press pass does not include access to the Commodore Gala Dinner or Afterglow Party.

Please fill out this application form.

Any requests made outside of this form will not be actioned.

In exchange for providing you with a free full-event pass, we request that you share your article, blog post, video, write up, recap, review or social media coverage of the event you attend. You have 3-4 weeks after the conclusion of the event to provide evidence to Neesha Hallan, Digital Marketing Executive for CMA Shipping ([email protected]).

If you are applying from a foreign publication, an English version of the piece must be provided.

In turn, we will cross-promote your piece on our social media accounts and the news section on our eventsites. If no coverage is provided within the given time frame, the full conference fee may be charged. CMA Shipping, at its sole discretion, reserves the right to:

  • Offer or restrict Press passes on a case-by-case basis
  • Close some parts of an event to the press

Free press passes will not be given to:

Public relations, marketing, advertising, consultants, sales or IT professionals.

Media company executives do not qualify for press passes, unless they are also qualified professional working journalists, as described above.
