New research on the size of the South East marine industry
Marine South East has recently commissioned research to quantify the global marine market across a range of marine activities, including ports and shipping, leisure marine, defence, environment and energy and marine services. . Importantly, this research will not be based on Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) codes, which are known to be very poor at capturing marine sector data.
As well as analysing the size of the market globally and its subsectors, researchers will break down the South East's market share and track whether this is growing or decreasing significantly. The research will show the balance of trade, looking at export levels for the South East industry.
It will help Marine South East to focus its activities to support projects where they are most needed and where impact will be the most significant. It will also provide detailed analysis on Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) codes and will provide data that is compatible with current Chamber of Shipping research carried out some years ago..
The data will be published towards the end of the year so look out for information in future issues of email news. In the meantime if you have any questions email jonathan@marineosutheast.co.uk
