Sponsors have already reserved the Conference dinner and evening drinks reception, but a range of assets are still available from overall gold and silver sponsorship; the Coastlink networking lunch; branding of one of the regular news updates to a physical promotional presence at the conference in the Port of Bilbao.  

In 2025 Coastlink heads to the leading port for the Atlantic route, Port of Bilbao from 29-30 April. The rapidly expanding event discusses and debates the topics that really matter to the short sea shipping industry, offering the latest updates and practical solutions.  

Sponsorship brings a wide range of benefits, from in-person networking with key stakeholders to the extensive and international reach of the online presence and media coverage given to the event.  

Coastlink attracts delegates from across Europe, UK and even as far as New Zealand. Participants included ports and port operators, short sea shipping lines and shippers, intermodal operators, terminal operators, cargo handlers, stevedores and freight forwarders, as well as logistics specialists, shipping agents, port consultants and industry associations.  

Sponsor’s commercial messages and branding will be carried across our magazine brands, Port Strategy, Greenport, The Motor Ship and Maritime Journal, ensuring that those sponsors are signposted to international audiences in the lead up to, during, and post the event.  

Inclusion in the Port Strategy Industry Database will extend sponsor’s reach to a potential audience of over 19,500 clients annually. The Port Strategy directory is consulted by key purchasers, with around 70% of the Port Strategy audience being in senior management positions in the ports/terminals sector.
