Maritime Action: Accelerating Innovation and Efficiency in North American Shipping

Join Blue Sky Maritime Coalition on World Maritime Day, September 24, to discuss how we can continue to capture value from the world's most efficient mode of cargo transportation: maritime.

Across North America, governments and industry are advancing strategies to strengthen maritime competitiveness through investments in infrastructure, industrial capacity, modern fleets, advanced fuels and technology, workforce development, safety, security, and environmental stewardship.

Waterborne transport is already the world's most efficient mode for moving cargo; the challenge is turning ideas into greater value through even higher productivity, lower costs, and cleaner operations with lower emissions.

This session explores two fundamental questions for the Maritime Industry: What should we do differently? and How do we get more value from what we do? 

Industry leaders will give prepared remarks and participate across two panels:
