We are continually impressed by the persistent quest for improved practices and shortcuts in the shipping industry.

The World Maritime Academy appreciates the unique contributions of each generation in shipping, emphasizing the importance of both learning from and teaching the succeeding generations.

Every shipping business narrative holds valuable lessons for the future, and we are committed to ensuring that these stories are not limited to a select few or lost over time. That’s why we created the ‘Shaping the Future of Shipping: Lessons to be learned Series, designed to enable the younger generation and newcomers to the shipping industry to learn and prevent the market from forgetting these valuable insights.

Shapping the Future of Shipping : Lessons to be Learned

Session 1: Baltic 99, Dimitris P. Iliou

We are delighted to present Mr Dimitris P. Iliou and his idea for the development of the Baltic 99.

The B99 or the Baltic Exchange Dry Cargo Questionnaire is a document issued by the Baltic Exchange. A shipping document, supplementary and subsidiary to the owner’s description of the vessel.

Sincere thanks to Mr Iliou for sharing his story with us and, with that, his truth in the SHAPING THE FUTURE OF SHIPPING: LESSONS TO BE LEARNED. We feel touched, humbled and gratified in equal measure.
