Mike on the stand. An informal gathering was held for IIMS members and eCMID Accredited Vessel Inspectors too. Exploratory meetings also took place with other interested parties, including the Korean Registry.
Commenting on the event, the IIMS President said, “It has been a great pleasure to co-host our stand in the UK Pavilion at KORMARINE with the IIMS this year. Mike and I enjoyed meeting some of our members and having targeted meetings with marine regulators and surveying firms based in South Korea. It has been a great opportunity to wave the IIMS flag for the first time at such a huge event in Busan and I am sure that we will have several follow-up emails and calls with the people and organizations we met. It was especially gratifying to meet Ambassador, Colin Crooks, from The British Embassy in Seoul and several of the Department for Business & Trade, Maritime Business Development team who attended the Trade Show and an evening reception hosted by the Embassy. I look forward to building on our contacts and developing the IIMS Brand and all that it stands for here in Korea.”
