Join us for an in-depth exploration of the engineering, economics, and environmental impact of hydrofoil technology in commercial maritime shipping. This seminar will examine how hydrofoils—once limited to high-speed ferries and racing yachts—are now making their way into broader segments of the shipping industry.
