March 23, 24 & 25, 2015 Hilton Stamford Hotel, Stamford, Connecticut Tradition: Celebrating the Best, Improving the Rest The finest sense of the word carries with it an accumulated wisdom, style, skill, accomplishment, success and traditions at their best are cherished, nurtured and even held sacred. But, as any next generation knows, challenging accepted wisdom and practices is a hallmark of true growth and development. Questioning fosters exploration, encourages curiosity and empowers those who might create better ways, science and solutions. So this year we celebrate the best of our industry’s traditions, whether it be putting our ships to the test to meet the world’s needs or rescuing refugees in the Med. We also tip our hat to those who are constantly bringing forth new and better ways of doing things – and we are very for- tunate to have so many of you with us this year. The $40 million dollar project of a prior generation may today be a billion, but the skills, vision, imagination and commercial talents needed are there, successfully evolved from the best that went before. Please come celebrate, come debate, come do business, come join us in March. Thank you all. www.shipping2015.com
