DID YOU MISS IT?
Watch the recorded session below.
COP26 and the discussion taken in MEPC 77 document that the maritime industry has a huge task ahead. Therefore, The Norwegian Business Association Singapore (NBAS), the Norwegian Embassy in Singapore and Innovation Norway have gathered a great panel to point out the road forward for the Maritime industry. The event is also a build up to our partner NorShipping’s action-oriented conference 10-13 January 2022.
Initially, Chairman of International Chamber of Shipping (ICS), Esben Poulsson, will address the strategic issues for the maritime industry’s efforts to contribute to a sustainable and equitable future. ICS comes fresh from hosting a big event at COP 26 in Glasgow. Hence, they have the finger on pulse on the development in the maritime industry.
Action to build on
Two participants will bring concrete action to the conversation: Professor Lynn Loo CEO of Global Centre for Maritime Decarbonisation, located in Singapore, and Regional Manager for DNV, Cristina Saenz de Santa Maria.
Lynn will share how fostering collaboration across the maritime industry can help accelerate the deployment of scalable low-carbon technologies.
Similarly, Cristina will focus on the Green Shipping Programme (GSP). This is a Norwegian public-private partnership, working towards establishing the world’s most efficient and environmentally friendly shipping.
Dr Per Christer Lund from Innovation Norway Singapore will moderate the discussion. Per Christer has longstanding experience in facilitating technology development, research and academic cooperation between Norway and Southeast Asia.
NBAS’ President Leonard Stornes, Ambassador H.E Eivind S. Homme and director of Innovation Norway Singapore, Paul Kastmann, will hold the opening remarks.
