Recap APM 2026

From 26–28 March, NME hosted the Team Norway Pavilion at APM 2026 in Singapore.

APM 2026 gathered close to 20,000 industry professionals, marking a new attendance record and underlining the exhibition’s strong position as a key meeting place for the Asia-Pacific maritime industry. The event provided an important platform for Norwegian equipment and service suppliers to showcase their solutions and connect with shipowners, operators and industry partners in the region.

APM 2026 was officially opened by CEO of the Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore, Wee Keong Ang. Norway’s Ambassador to Singapore, Leif Trana, and NME’s CEO Erlend Prytz also took part in the opening ceremony. During the exhibition, the Norwegian pavilion received strong interest from visitors, including a VIP delegation that visited the pavilion and met with several of the exhibiting companies.

In addition to the exhibition, Team Norway organised a networking reception together with Innovation Norway and the Norwegian Embassy in Singapore. The event gathered industry representatives for informal discussions and strengthened connections between Norwegian companies and international partners.

NME also hosted the session “Spotlight on Norway: How can Norwegian equipment and service providers help you with fuel and cost optimisation?”. The session highlighted how Norwegian companies contribute with solutions that support more efficient operations, reduced fuel consumption and lower costs.

We would like to thank all participating companies, partners and visitors who joined us in Singapore, and we look forward to continuing to strengthen Norwegian maritime presence in the Asia-Pacific region.

We look forward to returning to APM in 2028!
