On March 11, 2026, our ERI department paid a high-impact visit to Oceanology International 2026 in London to accelerate the project’s integration into the global maritime market. The ERI team focused on scouting breakthrough innovations in maritime robotics, specifically benchmarking their own autonomous underwater and surface vehicle developments against the world’s leading technology providers.
Oceanology International 2026 (Oi26), held from March 10 to 12 at the ExCeL London, was the largest edition in the event’s 57-year history, drawing over 8,000 attendees and 500 exhibitors from more than 80 countries. The conference and exhibition served as a global nexus for marine science and ocean technology, featuring a heavy emphasis on the “Blue Economy,” maritime autonomy, and environmental monitoring.
