The National Maritime Foundation has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Allcargo Group to collaborate on research and knowledge creation in the maritime, logistics, and supply chain sectors.

The partnership will bring together industry and policy experts to develop future-ready maritime and logistics solutions, support joint research projects, industry outreach programmes, and knowledge-sharing initiatives through conferences, dialogues, and workshops. It will also explore collaborative programmes involving logistics sector research scholars from IIM Mumbai and other universities.

India’s target to become a global maritime and logistics powerhouse will depend not only on robust infrastructure — but also on world-class ideas.

Türkiye went from 23rd to 8th in global shipbuilding rankings in just three years. Then came 2008, and nearly everything it built came undone.
India has its own top-5-by-2047 ambition. What can it learn from Türkiye’s rise — and its unravelling??

Two islands. One strait. A port that could change the map of the Malacca approach.
During PM Modi’s State Visit to Indonesia (6–8 July 2026), President Prabowo welcomed India’s interest in partnering on the integrated development of Sabang Port — envisioned to span cruise and marine-tourism facilities, shipbuilding and ship-repair, and shore-based services supporting offshore energy activities in the Andaman Sea.
Sitting off the northern tip of Sumatra, barely 85 Nautical Miles from India’s Andaman & Nicobar Islands, Sabang sits at the mouth of one of the world’s busiest maritime chokepoints.

The US Department of War has reverted US Indo-Pacific Command to its pre-2018 name, US Pacific Command - officially a naming change only, with no shift to mission, headquarters, or troop posture. The move has still sparked over what it signals for the US Indo-Pacific strategy. Swipe through, and tell us what you think.

The ocean has never been separate from our future.🌊

Every current, coastline, and living ecosystem shapes the world we inherit.

This , we reimagine our relationship with the ocean—not as a resource to consume, but as a system to understand, protect, and sustain.

Because caring for the ocean is caring for climate, communities, and generations to come.
🌊 Reimagine. Respect. Restore.
