Merehommik: Enhancing Maritime Capability Through Public–Private Cooperation
We invite you to participate in the event “Enhancing Maritime Capability Through Public–Private Cooperation”, which focuses on strengthening Estonia’s maritime resilience in a context of increasingly extreme weather conditions, shadow fleet activity, hybrid threats, and pressure on underwater infrastructure.
The event brings together policymakers, maritime authorities, companies, and members of the Estonian Maritime Cluster to discuss how the state and the private sector can jointly enhance Estonia’s maritime capabilities. The day includes expert presentations, a high‑level panel discussion, and networking.
We look forward to your participation as we work together to shape the future of Estonia’s maritime security and resilience.
Moderator of the day: Aigar Vaigu
