During the event, we also officially launched the “Maritime Talent Cultivation Alliance”, an initiative to strengthen connections between maritime education and industry practice. This initiative has drawn good response from many industry stakeholders in local, national and global arenas. We will, separately, write to you on the implementation plan of the Alliance and invite your participation in this meaningful project.
