The co-Founder Maria Yiassa, of Seaorama, has won the Startup Manager of the year 2023 award in a beautiful ceremony organized at Megaron, The Athens Concert Hall on Wednesday 13th December 2023!
Maria Yiassa has been part of the Maritime industry for over 25 years. Her passion and vision are to enhance the image of the maritime industry in the eyes of the world by making each person to realize the unmeasurable contribution of shipping in the everyday life. Thus, in 2021 Seaorama IKE was established, together with our other co-Founder Vera Alexandropoulou and has since expanded to various initiatives aimed to shake the way shipping industry is experienced but also to assist in changing the maritime industry in a way that embraces the environment and its contribution to society. 
The Shipping Industry impacts every aspect of our lives; however, many people struggle to grasp the significance of shipping and its vital role in our society. This is particularly true for younger generations who will be called to pave the way to several fundamental changes happening on the industry in the following years.
As the world was shaken by COVID epidemic, it became obvious that the best way to approach our vision was to utilise the expanding and impactful world of videogames, hence Seaorama: World of Shipping emerged.
SeaOrama: World of Shipping is a maritime themed video game designed to capture and present the shipping industry in an engaging and educational manner while standing out globally for its unique management and strategy simulation approach inspired by real shipping data.
This captivating game immerses players in the world of shipping companies, enabling them to develop their own managerial style through risk, logistics, finance and operations management while adjusting in macro-economic world challenges. Choose between container ships, bulk carriers, and tankers to create your own fleet, but be aware that various factors in the game may influence the expansion or investment in different types of vessels. By incorporating real shipping data, the game creates its own economy, generating diverse scenarios for players to navigate. From port congestion and piracy to extreme weather events, mechanical failures, and crew accidents, the game encompasses the challenges faced in the shipping industry.
The timing of Maria Yiassa’s award was just perfect as the following day, on the 14th of December 2023 SeaOrama: World of Shipping made a worldwide premiere, in 8 languages, and its appeal has exceeded our expectations!
The Game is available on Steam, Epic and Gog platforms and is also available in Amazon Prime, featured as one of the Prime Gaming bonus games to its members. For a Startup, gaining access to Amazon's Prime can be translated as to having access to more than 162 million Prime members.

INTERCARGO condemns the attacks on merchant vessels transiting the Red Sea and is calling for an immediate stop to these actions and the release of ships and their crew being held.
The Red Sea is a vital waterway, linking Europe and Asia, with 12% of global trade passing through it and these missile, drone or pirate attacks, which have been escalating over the past month, are completely unjustified with innocent seafarers becoming pawns in land-based aggression.
The safety of our seafarers remains INTERCARGO’s paramount concern and we urge our members to remain vigilant and take note of the guidance being issued by the industry.
Not only are these attacks putting crew members and vessels at risk but East African nations and regions relying on the transit of dry bulk cargoes such as food and vital raw materials through the Red Sea will face severe consequences due to trade disruptions.
Whilst INTERCARGO welcomes the international coalition which has been set up to help combat the attacks, concerned states and the international community need to work together to ensure unhindered safe navigation and the well-being of innocent seafarers world-wide.
INTERCARGO will continue to monitor the situation closely and offer guidance and support to members, as the industry collaborates with all stakeholders to address the threat posed and safeguard international shipping.

ABS issued an approval in principle (AIP) to Lemissoler Navigation for its design of a 65K DWT methanol-fueled Ultramax bulk carrier, the first such methanol vessel for China’s shipbuilding industry.
The Lem65ePlus-SDARI Methanol design, a joint development of Lemissoler and SDARI explores the feasibility of using methanol as fuel to reduce carbon emissions to reach the IMO’s net-zero target by 2050. With the implementation of EU ETS and FuelEU regulations, the vessel, when burning green methanol will have a high potential to reduce carbon emissions-related costs. The vessel has been thoroughly optimized and its preliminary Energy Efficiency Design Index (EEDI) was reviewed and indicated that it exceeds well EEDI Phase 3 standards. ABS completed design reviews based on class and statutory requirements.
“Methanol is a promising fuel source to reduce shipping emissions, and this new design from Lemissoler is an exciting opportunity for China shipbuilding to show leadership once again in the decarbonization of our industry. ABS is proud to support these innovative projects, sharing our industry-leading guidance to assist owners and shipyards with services and solutions regarding alternative fuels,” said Vassilios Kroustallis, ABS Senior Vice President, Global Business Development.
”We at Lemissoler are once again pioneering new technological and innovative designs for our Dry Bulk fleet. The collaboration with SDARI and ABS is proof of how much can be achieved collectively. This new evolution design is another step toward Lemissoler’s target to become net zero by 2045,” said Philippos Philis, Chairman and CEO of Lemissoler Navigation.
“As the designer of this innovative methanol-fueled vessel, SDARI is always committed to tailormade and deliver practical solutions to customers’ demands, offering an optimized design to satisfy future maritime rules and regulations,” said Zhou Zhi-yong, Vice President of SDARI.

Greek shipping is ranked 1st in the world maritime trade controlling 4.110 vessels of various categories of 350m total dwt. This achievement is strongly represented in the 2023 ranking of Lloyd’s List for the most influential 100 shipping leaders.
Fourteen Greek shipping personalities are included in this particular list with Maria Angelicoussis to be first Greek presence on 12th place. She has headed the Angelicoussis Group for the past two years, after the death of her father, John. According to Lloyd’s List, “she has already emerged as a strong leader in terms of preserving both the group’s scale and reputation as it steers towards a decarbonised future.”
George Prokopiou is in 19th place, as he has “placed orders for a total of 66 new vessels, sprawling across the three sectors to which he has been faithful for a good many years: LNG carriers, tankers and dry bulk carriers.”
Angeliki Frangou is in 21st place on the list. Lloyd’s List refers to a “diversified shipowner” with significant investments in the logistics business.
The British journal adds that since purchasing Navios in 2005, Angeliki Frangou has “been part of the conversation when considering the world’s leading shipping entrepreneurs.”
Evangelos Marinakis is in 22nd place on the list.
He is the “first Greek to order very large ammonia carriers and CO2 carriers.”
“Yet even by his standards, 2023 has felt like a year in which he put down a clear marker as one of the industry’s movers and shakers”.
Nasdaq-listed Capital Product Partners is transformed into a pure-play shipping entity through $3.1 billion worth of LNG carrier acquisitions and its renaming to Capital New Energy Carriers.
Melina Travlos, the president of the Union of Greek Shipowners (UGS) is in 25th place, representing the world’s largest shipowning nation.
“As the UGS, our mission is to safeguard the future not only of Greek shipping but also of European shipping,” she said recently.
The next Greek shipowner is George Economou, at 33rd place.
Kostis Konstantakopoulos, of Costamare, is in 37th place, described as “Container specialist continues to think outside the box.”
Peter G. Livanos, of GasLog and DryLog, is in 41st place. “Blue-chip shipowner has a focus increasingly on liquefied natural gas and green transition shipping, while keeping an active hand in the dry bulk sector”.
Petros Pappas, of Star Bulk, is in 42nd place who is “Leading dry bulk sector with commitment to sustainability.”
George Logothetis, of Libra Group, is in 62nd place, a shipowner “focused on aerospace, maritime and beyond”.
Nikolas Tsakos, of Tsakos Energy Navigation, is in 73rd place, having “built his tanker and liquefied natural gas carrier unit into a sturdy vehicle for serving blue-chip charterers.”
Semiramis Paliou, of Diana Shipping, is in 75^th place. She is an emerging leader who is unafraid to put her own stamp on organisations with a proud legacy, whether that be the bulker owner or the environmental body.”
Elpi Petraki is in 77^th place. She is the president of WISTA International, an organization committed to promoting the greater representation of women in the shipping industry.
Finally, Dorothea Ioannou, American P&I Club, is in 91st place. She is a New York attorney and the first woman to head the International Group P&I club.

In a rallying opening keynote of the “Shaping the Future of Shipping: Delivering a Net Zero World”, during COP28 in Dubai, Mrs. Melina Travlos, President of the Union of Greek Shipowners & Chair of the Board of Neptune Group of Companies, told attendees: “Our purpose and inspiration is our own survival, the survival of humanity. Collaboration, determination, and commitment from all of us are key to successfully bringing effective decarbonisation within our grasp”.
The Summit - organised by a coalition of leading maritime industry bodies and coordinated by the International Chamber of Shipping (ICS) in partnership with the Emirates Shipping Association – was held under the patronage of the United Arab Emirates Ministry for Energy and Infrastructure at Dubai’s iconic Museum of the Future.
Providing a platform for governments and leaders in energy, maritime, and all parts of the value chain, to discuss practical solutions for infrastructure, fuel availability, and financing, and how to prepare the maritime workforce to accelerate the transition to a low and zero carbon emission economy, Mrs Travlos was keen to emphasise that “shipping has outperformed most other industrial sectors when it comes to reducing carbon emissions, considering that it is a fossil fuel captive industry.”
She added: “Bear in mind that shipping carries around 90% of global trade and emits less than 1/15th of the top emitting single country and that during the past 20 years or so, shipping activity has almost doubled; yet emissions from shipping in terms of global CO2 output have fallen from around 2.9% to 2.2%.”
Making it clear that this is not enough and more needs to be done, Mrs Travlos continued: Therefore, we embrace the International Maritime Organisation’s more ambitious targets as agreed in its landmark 2023 Green House Gas Reduction Strategy and we are moving beyond aspirational initiatives and looking to implement pragmatic, fit-for-purpose solutions. Business and environmental sustainability must go hand in hand.”
“We are dependent on developments of the supply side for the full decarbonisation of our industry. Shipping will continue to do its utmost within its area of direct control. However, it is important to note that the IMO only regulates ships. It cannot directly regulate fuel producers, suppliers, ports, charterers, or even shipbuilders, all whose contribution to decarbonisation is indispensable.
“The activity and the investments needed to achieve the IMO strategy’s goals are intense, wide-ranging and must be executed on two fronts: Upgrading the sustainable transition of the existing fleet and investing in new buildings.
“The revised IMO strategy, with its nearer deadlines, poses additional challenges for the existing fleet, the vast majority of which will be operating during the transition period until 2050. As we speak 4,800 ships are on order, with delivery dates up to 2030.
“As a first step, the development of globally available alternative drop-in fuels for the shipping industry must be a priority.  Likewise, carbon capture can help further reduce existing ships’ emissions and compensate for the likely non-availability of clean fuel. It is indeed a fact that shipping will compete with all other sectors for new fuels. And shipping will be a minor player in their demand, given the enormous demand for energy on land. But ultimately, permanent decarbonisation necessarily entails a new generation of safe propulsion, abatement technologies and fuels. As mentioned, this effort requires contribution from, and the coordination of, a significant range of out-of-sector stakeholders. The time to act is now.”
