Istanbul, Türkiye, 26 June 2026.

Alkagesta joined the Bosphorus Shipbrokers Dinner 2026 in Istanbul, hosted by Gemi Brokerleri Derneği — Türkiye’s shipbroking association dedicated to advancing the profession and fostering collaboration across the maritime industry. The event brought together prominent players from the local and international maritime community in a city that has long served as a key hub for the global shipping sector. The company was represented by Anthony Satta from the Chartering Function.

The dinner brought together shipbrokers, partners, and maritime industry participants for focused discussion on the most pressing challenges facing the sector. Key topics included:

  • Rising bunker costs and their impact on shipping operations
  • The ongoing situation around the Strait of Hormuz
  • Regional tensions increasingly affecting day-to-day operations across the industry

For Alkagesta, the event provided a valuable opportunity to engage with shipbrokers, partners, and market participants, exchange insights on the commercial and operational challenges shaping the current environment, and strengthen relationships across a maritime hub central to the company’s trading and logistics activity.

A large crowd gathers outside a brightly lit building with Bosphorus Shipbrokers’ Dinner 2026 projected on its facade, along with a sponsor logo, during a night event.
A promotional sign for the Bosphorus2026 event shows logos, the event date (26th June 2026), location (Lütfi Kırdar Congress Centre), and silhouettes of ships, Istanbul landmarks, and birds.
