SMF, JP’s Mitsui O.S.K Lines ink MoU on maritime scholarship programme

MOL aims to offer two MaritimeONE Scholarships per year.

The Singapore Maritime Foundation (SMF) and Japan’s Mitsui O.S.K. Lines (MOL) signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to develop talents for the maritime industry through the MaritimeONE Scholarship Programme.

Under the MoU, MOL aims to offer at least two MaritimeONE Scholarships per year—including applicable overseas exchange programmes, starting 2025 up to 2027.

Meanwhile, SMF will drive and market the scholarships, targeting potential talents at Singapore’s public institutes of higher learning.

“MOL’s initiatives for Human Capital align with SMF’s Mission Statement, both in promoting talent, manpower and innovation in the maritime industry,” Jotaro Tamura, senior managing executive officer of MOL, said.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
