March in Rotterdam, the Netherlands. The Innovation Showcase is a one-of-a-kind event for companies interested in and currently supplying the cruise industry. The Innovation Showcase gives solution providers a platform to engage with decision-makers shaping the cruise industry, including top cruise line executives and shipbuilders.

“The cruise industry is in constant demand for innovation across its value chain, which was the catalyst for creating the Innovation Showcase. Cruise Week Europe 2025 will give exhibitors access to decision- makers who have the authority to approve and purchase new products, services and solutions,” says Karyn Gruenberg, CLIA’s Managing Director of Enterprise Development and SVP of Membership. “With a carefully curated exhibit floor and programming encouraging one-on-one connections, the Innovation Showcase is an unparalleled opportunity for buyers and sellers to come together in one extraordinary event.”

The 2025 Innovation Showcase builds on last year’s successful event in Genoa, Italy. Exhibitors represent maritime innovation, technology, new build and design, hospitality development, and more, with products ranging from cleaning supplies and cruise uniforms to life-saving devices and innovations in ship design.

Key features of the two-day Innovation Showcase include:

• An Opening Night Reception where all attendees come together on the show floor for immediate networking opportunities.
• Access to European Summit programming allowing exhibitors to learn about the cruise industry and critical issues.
• Curated Dialogue Sessions to facilitate conversations between exhibitors and cruise line executives addressing specific industry needs.
• Procurement Spotlight Sessions featuring presentations on the newest innovations in Hotel, Food & Beverage, Design & New Build and Maritime Technology.
• One-on-One Business Exchanges, with direct meetings between suppliers and buyers to foster meaningful business relationships.
• Pitch-to-Win Coaching Sessions, with exclusive coaching for exhibitors who sign up for this opportunity to perfect their presentations to buyers.

Cruise Week Europe 2025 is presented in partnership with the municipality of Rotterdam, the Port of Rotterdam, and Cruise Port Rotterdam, with RINA as the presenting sponsor.
