At the Global Maritime Forum Annual Summit, participants are at the centre of the agenda. The event is a highly interactive gathering, where participants themselves work together to find collaborative solutions. To get the best experience, participants are encouraged to attend all sessions during the event, as they will complement each other throughout the programme.
The first day of the Summit will start in the afternoon with an opening panel engaging high-level speakers and experts, followed by a welcome reception. This is a unique opportunity to network and reconnect with your peers and get inspired for the following Summit days.
The second and third days of the Annual Summit will consist of a combination of plenary sessions that examine key maritime issues and highlight industry actions, small working group sessions in which participants engage in specific questions across a range of topics, and a limited number of keynote addresses.
Throughout the event, there will be plenty of opportunities to exchange learnings with your peers and work together to find collaborative solutions.
The Global Maritime Forum will provide participants with reading material in both English and Japanese before the Summit to help facilitate the discussions.
