A new feature of the exhibition will be a series of on-site technical and financial seminars that are expected to attract a record attendance to the show. In the past, this major exhibition has attracted an international attendance of be- tween 6,000 to 10,000 industry per- sonnel. Other features of the Maritime London 89 week will include the Money & Ships Conference, a major debate on important issues affecting the industry, to be held in the Bar- bican Center.
