On June 7, Coalition and Movin'On Connect co-hosted an inspiring session at the Blue Economy & Finance Forum 2025 (BEFF) in Monaco. Titled “Setting Sail to Blue Port & Shipping Solutions Hub”, the session gathered over 250 participants and 12 experts from the maritime and financial sectors including Christine Cabau Woehrel (CMA CGM), Paul Taylor (Société Générale), Louise Tricoire (TotalEnergies), and Hing Chao (Wah Kwong Maritime Transport Holdings Limited). The goal? To explore concrete solutions for accelerating the energy transition in shipping and ports. Highlights from the session:

• Two expert panels:
• Shipping and finance: How can large-scale investments drive decarbonization?
• Port transformation: Challenges and opportunities in electrification and green infrastructure.
• Key takeaways:
• Aligning finance with shipping is essential to unlock massive investments.
• Innovation and collaboration are the engines of sustainable change.
• Stable regulation is key to attracting long-term funding.

👉 The session also revealed early findings from a study conducted in partnership with ERM Consulting Inc. and Movin’On. The study highlights the impact of the IMO’s new carbon taxes, which could significantly lower the cost gap for energy transition (-20% to -70%). 🔗 For more info :
