With just under two weeks to go, we look forward to meeting with over 450 registered attendees so far in Abu Dhabi at the #IAPH2023 World Ports Conference. With over 35 different sessions held over three days involving well over 100 speakers, many of whom are senior representatives from our membership, we have a few tips on making the most out of your attendance. The mornings and late afternoons will cover the high-level strategic themes with plenary keynote speeches and top-level panels, covering the key themes of energy transition, data collaboration and resilience, with innovation as the link between the three. Mid-mornings to mid-afternoons will be covered with parallel breakout sessions on these three topics, featuring tools, knowledge and advice for ports developed by IAPH and its partners to close the gaps in physical and digital infrastructure. There will be time to network too over IAPH regional lunches that join Europe-Africa, the Americas and Asia, as well as a desert safari on day one, the port tour on day three and the prestigious IAPH Sustainability Awards Gala dinner on day two. There are exclusive Port Innovation Roundtable breakfasts for regular members on all three days, plus the IAPH Annual General Meeting after the closing ceremony. A mail has been sent to attendees with a link to download the Conference app, and further information and full agenda can be found on the conference website. See you in Abu Dhabi!
