We’ve Got the Power!
Collaboration for Disruption
“If we are to align with IPCC recommendations of 1.5, shipping needs to ‘come about’ now!”

20 June 2022 – Amsterdam
The second event in the ZESTAs ShipZERO series, which was launched at COP26 in Glasgow in November 2021, brought together change-makers and innovators from across the entire maritime value chain, including shipowners, manufacturers, financiers, and regulators.
At ShipZERO26.5, we examined unmitigatedly disruptive projects and collaboration tools, showcasing concrete examples that propel us to Absolute Zero.
