The evening will commence with a panel discussion on the future of the maritime industry with an international line-up of speakers, focusing on a range of topics. Speakers representing key maritime locations will discuss subjects including the challenges facing the logistics and shipping industries, to what is being done to attract talent within their respective maritime centres. The aim is to encourage an engaging debate between the younger members of the audience and the more established.
