IMO-Singapore Future of Shipping Conference

International shipping moves more than 80% of global trade, helping drive socio-economic development the world over. The International Maritime Organization (IMO), its Member States, civil society and the shipping industry have been working together to establish and maintain a global framework of regulations and recommendations to ensure that shipping continues to provide a safe, clean, dependable and efficient form of transportation.

International shipping is also on the cusp of change, driven by new tools made available by digitalisation and the growing imperative to decarbonise. Work is already underway at IMO on these areas. The IMO-Singapore Future of Shipping Conference seeks views from key players on building a coordinated global approach and on tapping new opportunities for safer, cleaner and more efficient shipping.
