Cities and regions are calling for an awareness of both the development opportunities for, and the threats to, European maritime industries. The European Committee of the Regions (CoR) urges support for the maritime industries to ensure the success of their environmental and energy transition, together with their digital transformation and industrial revolution, and for the sector's careers to be made attractive again. At its plenary session of 27 June 2019, the CoR adopted an opinion on A new European agenda to speed up the development of maritime industries, drawn up by Christophe Clergeau (FR/PES), member of the Pays-de-la-Loire Regional Council.
