A new online film that explores the UK’s maritime industry has been launched through a joint effort of the UK Chamber of Shipping and ITN Productions.
The one-hour long programme is called “Delivering for Britain” and focuses on Britain’s trading relationships with the world in preparation of Brexit.
Guy Platten, chief executive of the Chamber, said: “The films engage a wider audience and it is our responsibility to reach out to the wider world – it’s important to tell the story to anyone and everyone of the UK shipping industry.
“We have a bright future as an industry and there are so many exciting things happening in shipping across the country.”
The Chamber released its 36-page Blueprint for Growth late last month, in which it suggests that Brexit could offer significant opportunities for Britain.
Simon Shelley, head of industry news for ITN, said: “With vital trade agreements to be negotiated in the years to come the shipping industry will have an important part to play.
“We hope this programme will engage and inform viewers from across the maritime sector.”
