The major progress and breaking into the world market for largest Yugoslav shipyards (Uljanik, 3. Maj & Brodosplit) happened during the socialist period, starting from the early 1950\u2019s. This breakthrough implied diplomatic and professional meetings, ship christening ceremonies, and technical innovations. These important and not only local events were recorded on documentaries of various genres \u2013 newsreels, industrial and technical films, TV shows and commercial films that had twofold role: they had to inform larger audience of technical successes but also, in different period with different intensities, to coopt workforce in shipyards. Moreover, in late \u201850\u2019s an important and in this part of Europe unique scientific institution in Zagreb was founded \u2013 Ship Research Institute (Brodarski institut). In this presentation I will try to show that these institutions shouldn\u2019t be seen separately but as a complex network that achieved technical progresses and business successes on which local communities prospered. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
