The next era for ports: Business Innovation sessions at #IAPH2021

The Business Innovation stream at this year’s IAPH World Ports Conference will assess the next era for ports and the demand for a changing of the guard. A new generation of leaders with different leadership qualities are needed to match the challenges ports face.
You can watch all sessions either live or on-demand after their broadcast, giving you full flexibility to compose your own schedule.
BUSINESS INNOVATION SESSIONS INCLUDE:
Changing of the Guard
The COVID19 pandemic has accelerated the global maritime industry’s path toward digitalization at an unprecedented rate and forced ports to look at how to ensure business continuity ahead of future disruptive events. Learn how maritime organizations are adapting to a new, uncertain future.
Speakers:
– Rodolphe Saadé, Chairman and CEO, CMA CGM
– Robin Silvester, President and CEO, Port of Vancouver
– Jingtao Bai, CEO, China Merchants Port Holdings
A New Dawn for Cruise Shipping
Prior to the COVID-19 outbreak, the cruise sector had stellar growth forecasts, an orderbook of more than 60 new vessels for delivery between 2020 and 2023, and a widening portfolio of candidate ports gearing up for cruise calls. With nearly the entire fleet of cruise vessels in layup, what can ports do to accelerate the recovery and rebuild confidence for visiting passengers and the port communities they support?
Speakers:
– Kelly Craighead, President and CEO, Cruise Lines International Association (CLIA)
– Santiago Garcia Milà, Deputy Director General, Port of Barcelona
Ports of the Future
Ports of the future are likely to be shaped by three principles:
• They will be solution ports
• They will have a social license to operate
• They will be carbon-free through innovative use of technology
Speakers:
– Jens Meier, CEO, Hamburg Port Authority (HPA)
– Tan Chong Meng, Group CEO, PSA International Pte. Ltd.
– Gene Seroka, Executive Director, Port of Los Angeles
