The next ITS UK Maritime Forum event takes place at Peel Port (Port of Liverpool), on 10 June, focusing on the International Maritime Organisation’s proposals for a net-zero framework for shipping.  The event will look at what the implications are for ports, and the transformative power of AI and automation to accelerate a green transition for the maritime industry.

Innovation is progressing at a rapid pace, and coherent frameworks and development pathways will be needed to maximise return on investment and set a technology trajectory capable of meeting global decarbonisation ambitions for shipping.

This event will delve into the key policy issues, and look at how cutting-edge technologies can enhance planning, resilience, and adaptability in the face of fluctuating geopolitical and environmental changes.

Join us to network, learn, and be part of the conversation shaping the future of global shipping.  The event will also include a private tour of the Port and a chance to see marine operations in action!
