ANNOUNCEMENT

Dear maritime professionals, friends, and everyone who has walked this path with us, We extend our heartfelt thanks for your determination and efforts in the Professional Committee and Assembly Membership elections held on October 11, 2026. Half of our members expressed their will for a new course and change. The Professional Committee and Assembly Membership elections were the first stage of the İMEAK Turkish Chamber of Shipping Chairpersonship election process. The final outcome will be determined by the Board of Directors elections to be held on Friday, October 16, and the result will be decided by the free will of the assembly members. We invite all our fellow travelers to follow this process through to the end. The will for change in maritime has been demonstrated; we are now advancing to the stage where this will is to be reflected in governance
