Autonomous ships, third forum by TheMediTelegraph

Genoa - Not just cars, trains and planes: Automation 4.0 is coming to the word of shipping, where the design of “autonomous ships”, or ships without crews, is already well under way. But what are the most concrete prospects for the sector? In a few years will we really be boarding ferries that are controlled from the land? And what are the risks, the opportunities and the gaps in the regulatory framework that affect autonomous shipping from one continent to the next? Experts from Italy and abroad will try to answer these questions, and many others, at the third Shipowners & Shipbuilding Forum, which is entitled, “Towards autonomous ships”.

Crewless ships could be the most revolutionary innovation in recent decades, and like all epochal changes, it brings both negative and positive changes. The purpose of the Forum is to cover in depth the technological aspect of innovation and hypothesise the most credible scenarios, both in terms of logistics and ports and with reference to regulations and employment. Participation in the event is free, although registration is required because of the limited number of seats in the room.
