The fourth Maritime Leaders Forum which will take place 1800 - 2100 on Monday 10th July 2023 at Trinity House in London. Sarah Kenny will lead a pan-industry panel reviewing the impact of digitisation and automation across the maritime industry. There will then be a discussion on future developments in the technology and how it can deliver international business success and accelerate progress towards climate change objectives.

The forum is an opportunity for delegates to influence policy and share best practice with other leaders and delegates are encouraged to offer their experience, as well as ask questions of the panel. The event is looking for a wide-ranging discussion, and aims to consider how the benefits of technology can be maximised while understanding the risks, including those associated with cyber technology.

At the conclusion of the formal session, there will be a networking reception.
