Sustainability and Innovation Showcase in the heart of the Port of London
18 September 2025
The PLA welcomes London International Shipping Week (LISW) 2025 to the heart of the Port of London. We are proud to present a set-piece exhibition celebrating and showcasing the sustainability and innovation flowing through in the Port of London. We are, together, shaping its future – we are the Thames Visionaries.
Hosted aboard Driftwoods, a stunning reimagining of the modern riverboat, this showcase offers businesses a prestigious platform to share their pioneering products, services, and vision for the future with a senior, global maritime audience – all while enjoying lunch and a tour of the iconic River Thames through central London. With panoramic glass walls, and unique views of the heart of the capital, Driftwoods creates a truly elevated experience.
Whether you're a start-up, scale-up, or established industry leader, this is your opportunity to stand out this LISW at the set-piece event in the heart of the Port of London, where you will be able to engage directly with the decision-makers shaping the global shipping landscape. Open to all LISW delegates, the Sustainability and Innovation Showcase is a space to spark new partnerships, exchange ideas, and build visibility within a vibrant, multi-disciplinary network.
