The Qatar Maritime and Logistics Summit 2020 will get underway in Doha next week, bringing together senior experts from the global maritime sector and Qatar to discuss industry-wide, long-term challenges and opportunities.
The two-day summit, which will start on February 18, will address several important topics such as trade, global trends, port development, financing, technology, digital security, cybersecurity, safety, security and sustainability and many other topics related to shipping, port and logistics sectors.
Mwani Qatar has announced the key sponsors for the summit, which will identify the trends that are likely to have the greatest impact on transportation in the Middle East region and globally, and deliberate on the actions to be taken swiftly to stay in business.
The main sponsors for the summit are QNB, and Milaha, while QTerminals is the platinum sponsor. Nakilat (diamond), Qatar Free Zones (gold), and Muntajat and Mowasalat (silver sponsors).
Hosted by the Ministry of Transport and Communications and organised jointly between Mwani Qatar as a strategic partner and Lloyd’s List, it will focus on the challenges that the maritime transport, port and logistics sectors facing between 2020 and 2030. Highlighting that the next decade is likely to see a closer alignment of the maritime and logistics sectors, Mwani Qatar said "this alignment will coincide with two trends of global significance that will increasingly shape the decisions we take about investment in the infrastructure needed to keep maritime and logistics businesses active. These trends are, firstly, a deeper concern for sustainability — most obviously in the need to protect a vulnerable environment — and, second, a keener perception of the impact of next-generation technologies on the world of work, particularly related to transportation."
