The European Sea Ports Organisation (ESPO) held its annual conference last month at the Port of Livorno, Italy.

The gathering of European port and maritime industry marked the 16th edition of the ESPO Conference held in the impressive Girondi Theatre.

The theme of the Conference was “Europe’s ports in a new world” and looked into the biggest game changers that oblige port managing bodies and the port and maritime industry in general to change and maybe re-invent themselves.

EPSO have released a photo gallery of the event which is now available by clicking here.

To check out the speakers’ presentations they are also available on EPSO's website.

The next edition of the ESPO Conference will take place in Oslo on 28-29 May 2020.
