The time is almost upon us again and the IUMI annual conference is just around the corner. It was very disappointing this year to not be able to go to Stockholm and see everyone in person due to the current challenging global conditions, however the Swedish organising committee has done an amazing job to bring the conference online for the first time ever.

The event will kick off on the 14 September with the opening session followed by the President’s workshop which will focus on COVID-19 and the impact on marine insurance. The next two weeks will be filled with highly topical and engaging issues and looks set to be a huge success. We will be running one workshop each day over a 90-120-minute session and most sessions will run twice a day to ensure all time zones are able to participate. Sessions will comprise a mix of presentations, discussion and online Q&A.

Topics covered include; RoRo safety; the much-anticipated global marine insurance report; the use of Ion-Lithium batteries in the marine environment; the impact of a pandemic on project cargo; vessel detentions; the impact of sustainability and digitalization on marine insurance and many others.
