Details

Today’s modest vessel order-book and synchronized global expansion make shipping fundamentals the healthiest since the 2000s…and a combination of new environmental regulations, new technology, decentralization of capital and political maneuvering makes the risks and rewards of this cycle unique.

Preliminary Agenda Topics:

Growth Strategies:
• Playing Offense: Executing growth strategies in shipping
• The Merger of Convenience Between Private Equity and Listed Companies
• The Evolving Business of Maritime Service Companies
• Shipping M&A
