AIMS Museo Maritimo took part at the recent PHILMARINE Expo 2026 held at the SMX Convention Center in Pasay City last June 17-19, 2026. This annual event gathers local and international companies, government agencies, educational institutions, shipbuilders, marine engineers, offshore developers, and technology providers to showcase the latest innovations in the maritime sector. The expo is co-located with related exhibitions including PhilBoating, Oil and Gas Philippines, Naval Defense Philippines, and Offshore Wind Expo 2026.

AIMS Museo Maritimo, together with the Asian Institute of Maritime Studies (AIMS) School of Graduate Studies, promoted the institution's graduate programs and the museum which covers the country's rich maritime history and heritage. The museum also brought the modular exhibits made by the Polytechnic University of the Philippines (PUP) – Department of History Interns which the expo participants were able to play with.
