Danish Maritime Authority Conference on EfficienSea2

32 partners from 12 different countries have been collaborating in the European project EfficienSea2 since 2015 to create a more digital maritime world. 

The project has focused on developing new communication platforms, international IT-standards and digital services for the maritime world. The project supports the effort recently initiated by the Danish Government through a plan for maritime growth and a digital strategy.

At the project’s final conference in Copenhagen on 5-6 April the solutions and communication platforms will be presented and demonstrated. High level representatives from BIMCO, IALA and the Danish Maritime Authority will also discuss the strategic perspectives of the project. 

The conference will be held in Copenhagen between the 5th of April at noon and the 6th of April at 1 pm. Individuals with an interest in maritime digitalisation are invited to join the conference.  

The theme for the conference in Copenhagen will be how the project results will materialise in the years to come. Questions such as ‘who will take over from here’ and ‘which solutions are already mature enough for the industry to benefit from’ will be answered, explains Christopher Saarnak, Project Leader and a Senior Adviser at the DMA.

“Some of our solutions are already operational and more will be so by April. Others, however, will ask for continued efforts in the years to come. At the conference we will bring forth new ideas, ambitious plans and concrete agreements for how to ensure that MCP, the BalticWeb and our many services will live up to the potential in the years to come,” he says.
