The decision to hold INMEX China at Guangzhou is an inspired one - as one of the world's busiest international sea lanes, the South China Sea oversees the passage of half the world's merchant fleet every year. As a strategic maritime geographic location, Guangzhou's role as host for INMEX China is also symbolic of its recognition as the gateway for maritime industry players to meet and network.
