Over the five days, ten free-to-join webinars, interviews, and Q+A sessions will focus on the impact of the disruption caused by the coronavirus pandemic upon both key sectors across the global shipping market and the critical challenges impacting its community.
Key issues to be discussed
The full Digital Maritime Week agenda is available to view online, where key topics up for discussion include an update on IMO 2020 implementation; a look towards seafarer safety, and a chance to evaluate digitalization across the market. Each session is curated by a well-known brand within Informa Markets Maritime and delivered by a line-up equally well-known faces from across the industry, including an opening a keynote from Esben Poulsson, Chairman of The International Chamber of Shipping.
