Tomorrow’s Talent Today

Themes and topics

A New Presidents Panel will take place, and geopolitical issues and their impact on cruising will be examined. 

Along with port and destination developments, the conference will delve into entertainment strategies, attracting the new to cruise segment, and expedition-, luxury-, and river cruising. Sustainability and regulation, decarbonisation, artificial intelligence and technological innovations are also among the topics to appear on the programme.
