The Saudi Maritime Awards 2027 will take place on 31 March 2027 at The Leylaty, Jeddah, bringing together leading voices from across the maritime industry for an evening dedicated to excellence, recognition, and meaningful connection.
Organized by Robban Assafina, the leading maritime media platform in the MENA region, the Awards were created to spotlight the individuals and organizations driving progress across shipping, ports, logistics, offshore, and marine services. At its core, the event is about celebrating real achievement — the people and companies whose work strengthens the industry and contributes to its long-term growth.
Building on a Remarkable First Edition
The inaugural edition, held on 29 January 2026, marked an important milestone for the regional maritime community. With 400+ attendees representing 30 countries and 29 award categories presented, the event quickly established itself as a trusted and prestigious platform for industry recognition. The strong internationa
participation and high-level presence reflected both the sector’s dynamism and the growing importance of Saudi Arabia within the global maritime landscape.
Recognizing Impact and Leadership
The 2027 edition will feature 32 carefully selected award categories, evaluated by an independent panel of respected industry experts and thought leaders. The judging process is designed to ensure fairness, credibility, and transparency — recognizing measurable performance, innovation, and leadership across the maritime value-chain.
