THE London-based International Cargo Handling and Association (ICHCA) and the Washington, DC-area based National Maritime Safety Association (NMSA) are sponsoring the New Tech, New World Week Conference September 19-21 in Vancouver, British Columbia. The conference will bring together national, regional and international cargo professionals to explore latest industry, regulatory and technology trends and share views and experiences on the impact for safety, security, sustainability, skills development and day-to-day practical operations.
The conference will be hosted the British Columbia Maritime Employers Association (BCMEA). Telephone (604) 254-7181 or email is@bcmea.com
'Multiple industry, regulatory and technology forces are converging to challenge and change the world of cargo handling as we know it. Bigger ships and shipping industry consolidation; automation, digitalisation and electrification; and increased safety and environmental legislation all have significant impact for health safety security environment (HSSE), risk, compliance, skills and training, cargo care and operations professionals at sea, at the ship-shore interface, in ports and terminals and along landside transport chains,' said a statement from organisers.
