The senior management of 18 listed shipping companies will participate in sector panel discussions to be held at Capital Link's 2nd Posidonia Analyst & Investor Forum scheduled for June 7, 2010 at the Astir Palace Hotel, in Vouliagmeni, Athens, Greece.

Posidonia Posidonia is the world's largest and most prestigious shipping trade event and it takes place in Greece every two years attracting a significant number of visitors from all over the world. According to industry sources, Posidonia 2010, to be held from June 7-11, is expected to attract nearly 1,800 exhibitors from 86 countries and to be visited by more than 17,000 Greek and foreign industry professionals and government officials, of which 10,000 are expected from abroad.

Greek Shipping a Global Force Greek shipowners are a major force in global shipping controlling more than 20% of the world's merchant fleet by tonnage and Greece itself has a long tradition as a maritime nation. Greek shipowners who compete on a global scale have a track record as astute operators and asset traders. The global shipping and investment community continues to look at the behavior of Greek shipowners during peaks and troughs, as they have been able to prove their success in one of the most significant, difficult and unpredictable professions of the world.

Greek owned shipping is not related to the development of the Greek economy itself but depends on trends in the global commodity and energy markets. Still, shipping is a significant contributor to the Greek economy mainly through the foreign currency inflows it generates and the employment it provides. Piraeus is a major hub for the global shipping business and the industries that service it.

Capital Link's 2nd Posidonia Investor & Analyst day Given the significant number of international investors, analysts and financiers visiting Greece for Posidonia, Capital Link organizes an Investor & Analyst Day during which the senior management of listed shipping companies provides an update and an interactive discussion on the developments and outlook of the various shipping sectors. The panel discussions are sector focused and not company specific.

The target audience includes analysts, investors, financiers, financial and trade media.
