| Europort Maritime 2007 Europort Maritime 2007, the international exhibition for the international maritime industry, will host three major international conferences alongside the exhibition in November, 6th – 9th: CEDA Dredging Days 2007, Maritime Health Conference and the annual IBT meeting. CEDA (Central Dredging Association) Dredging Days, 7-9 November The CEDA days are the most important annual event for dredging professionals from all over the world. This 2007 conference focuses on state-of-the-art technology but also seeks to raise awareness of the importance of dredging to the world in terms of infrastructure and public welfare. During five sessions internationally renowned keynote speakers will describe and analyse the circumstances surrounding cases where dredging was NOT approved. At the same time, each speaker will offer possible new approaches and present case studies. As part of CEDA's ongoing support for education, university and college students will be invited to present their research results on any dredging related subject. The CEDA days are accompanied by a dedicated "exhibition within an exhibition" in the Ahoy complex. Companies such as Van Oord, IHC Holland, Shipdock Amsterdam, Seatools/Dredgemate, Deme, CRSI, G-Tec, Dredging International and others will all present their specific expertise. During these two days medical specialists, directors, policymakers and suppliers of medical solutions will debate current and future issues during eight different sessions. This, the first Maritime Health Conference to be held at Maritime Europort, will host many international participants and is an important addition to Europort Maritime's conference programme. The conference will focus on major issues such as the management of handling medical claims, analysis of medical data in port clinics, drugs & alcohol testing, accidents and casualties, US Coast Guard regulations, crew health on cruise ships, infections and outbreaks of disease, the role and scope of telemedicine. write your comments about the article :: © 2007 Exhibition News :: home page |
