2024 Sponsor

Through the efforts of hardworking teams and the achievments of singular individuals, the strength of the maritime industry is in the quality of its people, who work diligently to realise high quality services, products, and results.

The Maritime Services Award is dedicated to the companies and people who contribute meaningfully to the industry in a countless number of valuable ways.

Matthew Hollamby from Patrick Terminals won the award in 2023, having demonstrated an enduring impact on the industry, and was deemed by the judges to be a thoroughly deserving recipient of this award.

Matthew’s career has been defined by his unrelenting commitment to enhancing productivity and efficiency within terminal operations, while his visionary thinking has led to the development and implementation of groundbreaking innovations, such as the Pondus Safety Management System.  

The sponsor for the award this year is NSW Ports, underlining the company’s support for innovation and hard work which keep the industry ahead of the curve.

“NSW Ports is proud to sponsor this year’s Maritime Services Award, which recognises the diversity of service sectors across our industry and the significant contributions of individuals and organisations who make it such a great industry to be involved in.”

“We would like to wish the nominees in all categories the best of luck and thank DCN for once again providing an opportunity to come together and celebrate the industry’s achievements.”

Nominations for the 2024 DCN Shipping & Maritime Industry Awards have now closed, with finalists to be announced via the DCN newswire in mid-October. Sign up here to make sure you don’t miss the announcement!
