The renowned shipping agent Giorgos Martinos, from the maritime stronghold of Kalymnos, speaks about the sea that raised us, shaped us, empowered us, and continues to carry us through time and across the world.
“We need marine scientists — of every level. We need everyone. We must expand our shipping industry and keep it at the top, where it rightfully belongs on the global stage,” emphasizes Giorgos Martinos.
He discusses the vital work of seafarers, the Merchant Marine Academy of Kalymnos (AEN), the Kalymnian community in Tarpon Springs, Florida, the legacy of sponge divers, and much more.
