This year’s theme is SKILLED SEAS.

British Columbia has a deep-rooted connection to the maritime world, with a thriving marine industry that spans commercial shipping, naval operations, and cutting-edge research. Victoria, the provincial capital, is home to a strong ship repair presence, a growing marine technology sector, and key institutions focused on education and workforce development in the marine space. As the industry faces increasing demands for innovation, sustainability, and operational excellence, there is a growing need for a highly skilled, diverse and adaptable workforce to meet the challenges ahead.

Mari-Tech 2026 will explore how the marine engineering community is building the next generation of skilled professionals, advancing technical training, and adopting emerging technologies to support a more resilient and future-ready industry. From simulation and AI to workforce planning and hands-on experience, the conference will bring together marine engineers, educators, regulators, shipyards, and vessel operators to share insights and best practices that strengthen our collective capacity.

Held annually, Mari-Tech 2026 is hosted by the CIMarE Vancouver Island Branch, with support from the SNAME Pacific Northwest Section, and will take place in beautiful Victoria, BC.

WELCOME TO MONTREAL!

Dear Mari-Tech Attendees, Sponsors and Exhibitors,

It has come to our attention that the phishing scams have started already – and we haven’t even activated the hotel room block yet for Mari-Tech 2025! A number of past exhibitors received phone calls today (there are likely multiple variations of this but one of the calls came from “Brad at NTA, phone number 888-777-5818”).

Please know that we (and our host hotel) DO NOT engage with third-party agencies to sell hotel rooms at reduced rates. The same holds true for attendee lists. If you receive emails or phone calls from anyone claiming to represent the Hotel Bonaventure on behalf of Mari-Tech, OR from organizations claiming to have access to our attendee list, these are phishing attempts and should be blocked.

Thanks for your understanding and we look forward to sharing legitimate information about Mari-Tech 2025 in the weeks ahead!
