MARLO EVENTS
MARLO hosts an annual MARLO Maritime Conference in
Dubai and additional regional forums throughout the Middle East. At these events, commercial mariners and industry
representatives from the Gulf, East Africa and Europe are invited share
their views with senior leadership of the
Combined Maritime Forces and other members of the maritime
community.
The annual MARLO Maritime Conference in Dubai
typically feature top military commanders, senior government officials,
industry leaders, or experts from the maritime community. While topics
vary from year to year, past speakers have discussed issues including
piracy, maritime safety, and maritime crime.
In 2008 MARLO successfully hosted regional
receptions in countries such as Kenya, Egypt, and Qatar. These regional forums serve to focus on a
particular sub-region, country, or specific groups within the commercial
maritime community. Also, these smaller meetings provide an opportunity
for us to meet with individuals who
may not have the opportunity to travel to the annual Dubai conference.
All of the MARLO hosted conferences and regional forums are
open to the greater commercial maritime community and will not preclude
attendance by those who may not happen to be from the area
(sub-region/country) in which we are holding the event.
Information on future events
will be emailed out and posted on this website as the details become
available. If you wish to inquire about future events or wish to be
added to our mailing list, please email us at
marlo.bahrain@me.navy.mil.
The annual MARLO Conference and regional forums
cover the Gulf Region, East African Ocean, and the Red Sea.
