Dear Friends and Colleagues,

On behalf of the Organizing Committee of MarineTech Summit (MTS-2010), it is a great honor to welcome you from all over the world. MTS-2010 will be held during October 26-28, 2010 in Dalian, China. It is a parallel summit of The7th International Shipbuilding, Ports and Marine Equipment Exhibition for China (Shiptec China). Shiptec China is the largest and most influential maritime industry fair in North China, and it will play a much more important role to link up different sectors and industry players of ports, shipping and shipbuilding and to drive a healthy and sustained development of the world maritime industry.

As Dalian is famous for its ports and shipbuilding, we organize this summit to bring international industry players together in one location to share the latest technology news and valuable experiences at the summit and other events. China is experiencing exponential market growth and industry players from all over the world are keen to find the key to mapping their China business strategy. We would like to provide a platform for both domestic and international industry player to interact face-to-face, exchange ideas and create new business opportunities.

My special thanks to many individuals and organizations that have worked so hard to make MTS-2010 a successful conference. The organizing committee, steering committee, and program committee all worked long hours and put in much creative efforts.

Finally, my thanks to the participants of this conference! It is due to your keen interest that this field is expanding and exploring new frontiers. We hope you enjoy the conference and that your participation contributes to your professional development and relationships.
