In a constantly changing economic and geopolitical environment, there is one constant: ports need financing to sustain their needs and to grow. At the #IAPH2025 World Ports Conference taking place from 7–9 October 2025 in Kobe, Japan, the global development financing community will play a major role in the discussions. These organisations are key enablers for ports to develop their physical and digital infrastructure as part of the energy transition. Their support can also improve the efficient flow of cargoes through ports’ terminals and their intermodal networks and build resilience against climate change through adaptation and mitigation. By offering knowledge and capacity building, they can also help ports protect themselves against cybersecurity threats and illegal trade. The early bird discount for #IAPH2025 has been extended until 31 May – you can benefit from reduced early bird rates by registering here.
