IAPH and Mercator Media are delighted to announce that the IMO secretary-general Arsenio Dominguez will head up the VIP speaker roster on day one of the IAPH 2024 World Ports Conference which will be held in Congress Centre Hamburg, 8-10 October. He will be speaking alongside host sponsor Hamburg Port Authority’s CEO, and IAPH president, Jens Meier and BIMCO President Nickolaus Schües on the role of ports and shipping in jointly delivering on the new IMO 2024-2029 strategic plan, given the new decarbonisation ambitions of the industry.
