Antwerp Green Week arrives

The Congress will take place at the Hilton Hotel Antwerp, from 9 to 11 October 2013 and, with nearly 200 participants from port authorities, terminal operators, shipping lines and other port stakeholders from 30 countries, Antwerp is the place to be this week.

The programme, which was devised by an Advisory Board comprising members of ESPO, the ESPO Sustainable Development Committee, EcoPorts and the Port of Antwerp, will cover topics that affect all maritime ports and terminals.

Topics will include dealing with air emissions in ports, implementing OPS and the Environmental Ship Index.

The Port of Antwerp’s 2013 Sustainable Enterprise Guide will also be presented during Antwerp Green Week together with the “Clean Air in Ports” workshop for Naturschutzbund Deutschland (NABU) on 8 October.

As well as being informed on the latest policy and technology, delegates will have the opportunity to participate in working groups and to share their first hand experience with peers from across the global logistics chain.

Furthermore all participants are invited to join the following side events, which are designed to facilitate networking, knowledge building and relationship building. The welcome reception will take place on 8 October, gala dinner on 9 October and the port tour on 11 October 2013.
