Lloyd’s List Greek Shipping Awards introduces new ‘Deal of the Year’ prize
The Lloyd’s List Greek Shipping Awards is pleased to announce the launch of an exciting new category of award: ‘Deal of the Year.’
The award marks the first new category added to the shipping industry’s favourite annual awards for several years. It follows the success of the ‘Deal of the Decade’ award, offered twice in the event’s 20-year history. These special awards, presented in 2013 and 2023, were won by Angeliki Frangou and Evangelos Marinakis, respectively.
The new annual award is being supported by the Timagenis Law Firm and will make its debut at the Greek Shipping Awards 2024, presented this year on December 6 at the annual gala dinner held in the Athenaeum InterContinental Hotel.
Timagenis, one of the original supporters of the Lloyd’s List Greek Shipping Awards when they were first launched back in 2004, also sponsored the most recent ‘Deal of the Decade’ Award last year. Timagenis commented: “We are honored to sponsor the inaugural ‘Deal of the Year’ award category. As a firm committed to excellence in maritime law, we are proud to recognise and celebrate the outstanding achievements and innovative transactions shaping the future of Greek shipping.”
The awards are adjudicated by a judging panel of leading personalities representing Greek shipping and the wider Greek maritime cluster. The annual Deal of the Year Award will go to the person or company adjudged by the panel to have done the most successful and impressive single transaction in Greek shipping over the preceding year. A series of transactions may be considered by the judges if circumstances warrant. Transactions that have not yet closed may not be considered.
Any kind of business deal within the maritime sector may be nominated, including but not limited to mergers and acquisitions, joint ventures, sales and purchases, or the conclusion of a very successful financing or very profitable charterparty. Wherever possible the exceptionality of the deal should be illustrated by identifying the benefits and advantages to the party to the transaction, or its expected benefits.
Nominations are welcomed for the Deal of the Year Award and for all the other categories of award, by the deadline of Friday, October 18. You can nominate online at www.greekshippingawards.gr or by email to office@greekshippingawards.gr

Lloyd’s List has been a provider of reliable information about international shipping since 1734.
Timagenis Law Firm has been for five decades a leading Greek shipping law firm, offering comprehensive and bespoke legal services on every aspect of shipping law practice as well as other areas of law.

Lloyd’s List Greek Shipping Awards returns on December 2, 2022
Shipping’s largest awards event, the Lloyd’s List Greek Shipping Awards, will once again put the spotlight on some of the industry’s leading individuals and companies as the achievements of Greek shipping and the Greek maritime cluster are celebrated at the traditional end-of-year awards presentation dinner In Athens.
Yearly since 2004, the Greek Shipping Awards has attracted capacity audiences of hundreds of guests and this year, the 19th edition of the awards, is expected to be no different.
Strong support for this year’s Awards is led by overall Event Sponsor GMS. The welcome drinks are sponsored by Erma First while China Classification Society is once again offering the champagne toast to Greek shipping’s health. They are backed up by a roster of prestigious Greek and international sponsors of the individual awards.
Nominations are coming in as the deadline for entries for the 2022 awards nears. Nominations must be received by the organisers before midnight, Greek time, on Friday 14 October in order to be accepted.
Once again, a prestigious and highly knowledgeable panel of judges from across the industry will assess all nominations and will decide the winners of this year’s Awards.
The panel, broadly representing the Greek shipping industry, will be tasked with choosing ‘the best of the best’ in a range of categories that span the full gamut of Greece’s shipping industry – from the dry cargo, tanker and passenger line sectors – to achievements in safety, sustainability, technology, shipbroking finance and more. There will be excitement, too, in learning the judging panel’s choice of winners for prestigious individual awards such as Personality of the Year, Seafarer of the Year, the Lifetime Achievement Award and the Next Generation Award.
All the winners will be revealed at the 2022 gala awards dinner on Friday, December 2 in Athens. Bookings for the dinner are already open.
