PIMEC – Navigating the Future of the Blue Economy
PIMEC – Pakistan International Maritime Expo & Conference is set to mark a historic milestone as the largest and most impactful maritime event in the country’s history. Hosted under the visionary leadership of the Pakistan Navy and the patronage of the Ministry of Maritime Affairs, this landmark 2nd edition will bring together global maritime leaders, industry pioneers, and public-private stakeholders to drive innovation, investment, and strategic cooperation in the maritime sector.

Mian Muhammad Shehbaz Sharif
Prime Minister of Pakistan
I am pleased to learn that the Ministry of Maritime Affairs, in collaboration with Pakistan Navy, is organizing the 2nd edition of the Pakistan International Maritime Expo & Conference (PIMEC) in 2025.
The concept of the marine economy gained international prominence during the UN Conference on Sustainable Development held in Rio de Janeiro in June 2012. Since then, Pakistan has taken vital steps to recognize and harness the immense potential of our maritime sector.
PIMEC serves as a dynamic platform to showcase our commitment to sustainable development, maritime innovation, and international collaboration. I commend all stakeholders for their efforts in organizing this prestigious event and reaffirm the Government’s support for initiatives that contribute to Pakistan’s blue economy and national prosperity.

Admiral Naveed Ashraf, NI(M) T Bt
Chief of the Naval Staff, Pakistan Navy
Pakistan possesses enormous maritime potential, and its economic prosperity is deeply connected to the development of its maritime sector.
The Pakistan Navy, as a principal stakeholder in shaping maritime strategy and thought, fully recognizes this critical need. We are proactively engaged in fostering maritime awareness and facilitating the sustainable exploitation of the vast, untapped resources within our Blue Economy.
Our commitment is to ensure that Pakistan leverages its maritime advantages for economic growth, security, and national development.

Muhammad Junaid Anwar Chaudhry
Federal Minister for Maritime Affairs
The Blue Economy represents the sustainable harnessing of our ocean’s vast resources to drive socio-economic progress—enhancing livelihoods, creating employment, and safeguarding the health of marine ecosystems.
Pakistan’s unique geographic position along vital global trade routes places it at the forefront of maritime opportunity, with enormous potential waiting to be realized.
Unlocking this potential demands a clear maritime vision, strategic planning, and unwavering commitment. Together, we can transform our maritime domain into a powerhouse for national prosperity and sustainable development.
