National Maritime

The Largest UK Maritime SME Network Supporting business & collaborations through funding, expertise & talent. We are a not-for-profit business engagement group, media, training and events organisation focusing on the global maritime sector. We explore the values of the ocean and coasts for sustainable development from a multi-disciplinary and multi-sector perspective. UK Maritime SME’s can join Blue Prime to gain access to our FREE members’ benefits. We believe that the whole sector can only gain from the collaborations that our networking platforms provide so we provide opportunities, industry knowledge and business support as part of our service to you. We operate a ‘Pay as you Go’ scheme which means you only pay for the extra services you access like events, training, business consultancy and much more. We organise and deliver major international conventions, exhibitions, training courses, technical talks, seminars, networking opportunities and business support programmes. Through our SME Maritime Working Group, we champion companies that source, service or produce in the UK to improve the supply chain throughout the sector and provide our members with a way to attain global recognition through the use of the official UK Quality Mark for Maritime SME's. The sector champions we work with not only provide leadership guidance and growth opportunities but will influence governmental decisions to provide the most fertile environment from which to develop your business, and, to that aim we positively encourage our members to guide us through the conversations we have. If you would like to find out more about the benefits of our Blue Prime membership, the business support we offer, our constantly evolving events programme, or our maritime industry news channels, please visit our website, or call us as conversations grow business.
