New Leader Vernegora Steers KMP at Neva 2025

The delegation of the Marine Instrumentation Corporation (KMP) at the “Neva 2025” civil shipbuilding exhibition will be led by the newly appointed General Director, Andrey Vernigora. He assumes this role effective January 16, 2023, and will also join the exhibition’s organizing committee, which is approved by the Russian Minister of Transport. The 18th International Exhibition for Civil Shipbuilding, Shipping, Port Activities, and Ocean Shelf Development is scheduled to take place in Saint Petersburg from September 23 to 26, 2025. KMP, established on April 1, 2020, by presidential decree, consolidates several enterprises, including the Oceanpribor and Morinformsystema Agat, with a reported revenue exceeding 50 billion rubles at inception. In December 2024, KMP was integrated into the United Shipbuilding Corporation. The company specializes in developing and manufacturing navigation and communication systems, combat information and control systems, and radar and hydroacoustic devices for both military vessels and civilian ships. This leadership transition and participation in a prominent exhibition underscore KMP’s commitment to advancing maritime technology and enhancing Russia’s capabilities in domestic and international shipbuilding.
