Conference Programme 2015
Shipping remains fundamental in moving trade, driving growth and prosperity globally. With interventionist governments and regulators, changing technologies and rapidly evolving markets and demands, we explore the 10 year perspective for shipping.
Global prosperity is built on the combined platform of shipping and trade. Centres of gravity are shifting inexorably, and market volatility poses complex questions for the industry. What do the next 10 years hold?
The role of governments in a global maritime industry: Should governments lend their support and how can they participate in growing their domestic sectors? How can tensions between national, regional and global priorities be resolved?
How will technology, new energy sources and innovation over the next 10 years, help to ensure that environmental and economic sustainability is assured?
