SPONSORSHIP PACKAGES

The 3rd International ECDIS Conference and Exhibition (IEC 09) is a must-attend event for the shipping community both in Asia and internationally, for Autumn 2009.  With the conference theme “ECDIS – Beyond Navigation”, MPA and UKHO are inviting the international shipping community to take part in a series of essential debates, keynote speeches and panel sessions, all of which aim to provide a practical guide to the transition towards ECDIS mandation and also to assess the impact and benefits of ECDIS beyond its traditional navigation capabilities.

Conference topics focus on recent and future technological advancements, regulatory changes, training and the actual benefits that can be accrued by effective implementation of ECDIS on board the vessel.

Sponsorship of this event will enable organisations to take full advantage of the opportunity to promote their brand, showcase innovative products and services and network with key partners and stakeholders within the marine industry.
