Seatrade
Seatrade is a media and events brand within the maritime and cruise industry. Originally established in 1970 by Themistocles Vokos,[1] Seatrade was later acquired by UBM in 2014.
History
Originally known as Seatrade Communications, the company was originally founded by Themistocles Vokos in 1970, with the idea of helping to facilitate good communication within both cruise and maritime industry sectors. In the same year, the first issue of the brand's maritime magazine, Seatrade Maritime Review, was published, followed in 1997 by cruise counterpart Seatrade Cruise Review. 1973 saw the launch of Seatrade's first event, the Money and Ship conference, with various cruise and maritime events later established, including the Seatrade Maritime Awards in 1989. Seatrade later went on to launch a news website for the cruise industry in 2000, initially titled Seatrade Insider and later renamed to Seatrade Cruise News in 2015. The maritime equivalent, Seatrade Global, was introduced in 2013, eventually becoming Seatrade Maritime News instead. In 2014, Seatrade Communications was acquired as a brand by UBM for an undisclosed amount. [2]
