The Hellenic Institute of Marine Technology (H.I.M.T.) successfully staged its 20th Annual Marine Technology Conference on 6 and 7 October 2026, with a pre-conference session held on 5 October at the V.Ships Auditorium in Piraeus, sources indicated on 14 October 2026.
H.I.M.T. organised the event at the Eugenides Foundation for the main conference days, with the shorter pre-conference meeting taking place in Piraeus; the report describes the gathering as the institute's twentieth-anniversary edition and notes the sequence of dates and venues without detailing individual sessions or participants.
The source item is dated 14 October 2026 and carries the heading Successful Conclusion of the 20th Anniversary Annual Marine Technology Conference, underlining that this year’s meeting was of particular significance because it marked the twentieth anniversary of the established institution.
- 5 October 2026: pre-conference at the V.Ships Auditorium, Piraeus.
- 6–7 October 2026: main conference at the Eugenides Foundation.

Conference milestone
The conference’s designation as a twentieth-anniversary event emphasised longevity rather than introducing new claims about the institute’s founding date or past programmes; the available account confines itself to the celebration of the milestone and to the fact of the recent gatherings at the two named venues.
Organisation and setting
According to the report, H.I.M.T. was the organising body responsible for the scheduling and staging of both the pre-conference and the main conference sessions; the Eugenides Foundation provided the setting for the principal two days while the V.Ships Auditorium in Piraeus hosted the preceding activity on 5 October.
reports’s coverage offered a concise summary of the event’s timing, locations and anniversary status but did not extend into detailed results, proceedings or lists of contributors in the item summarised for verification, leaving such particulars outside the scope of the published note.
The record of the conference in the cited report confirms only the dates, the venues and the institutional milestone; it therefore serves principally as an announcement of the event’s successful conclusion and of H.I.M.T.’s twentieth-anniversary observance, as presented by reports on 14 October 2026.
