Delegates will be given the opportunity to join the Welcome Reception on the evening of 6 October 2015, a Gala Dinner on 7 October 2015 and the ever popular Port Tour on 9 October 2015.

Gert Nørgaard, manager strategy and planning, Copenhagen Malmö Port (CMP), said: “As the logistics hub for the Baltic region, we are looking forward to welcoming participants next year. CMP gives priority to safety, health and environment to obtain durable and sustainable development and we will show delegates some of these initiatives in both Copenhagen and Malmö.”

The GreenPort events will continue to be supported by the European Sea Ports Organisation (ESPO), EcoPorts and many other leading industry organisations.

The 2014 event, hosted by the Port of Barcelona, saw nearly 200 delegates from over 30 countries came together to discuss and debate in a series of working groups and plenary sessions, hot topics such as tools for green ports to respond to stakeholders’ expectations.

The Call for Papers will be released shortly. If you are interested in presenting, sponsoring or attending the event then please contact Isobel Roberts on: +44 1329 825335 or email: congress@greenport.com
