History

Seatrade was founded by Themistocles Vokos in 1970. That year, the first issue of the brand's maritime magazine, Seatrade Maritime Review, was published, followed in 1997 by cruise counterpart Seatrade Cruise Review.

1973 saw the launch of Seatrade's first event, the Money and Ship conference, with various cruise and maritime events later established, including the Seatrade Maritime Awards in 1989.

Seatrade went on to launch a news website for the cruise industry in 2000, initially titled Seatrade Insider and in 2015 named Seatrade Cruise News. The maritime equivalent, Seatrade Global, was introduced in 2013, eventually becoming Seatrade Maritime News.

In 2014, Seatrade Communications was acquired by UBM for an undisclosed amount.[4]
