Digitalisation in Shipping: Europe 2025
The 2nd edition of ACI’s Digitalisation in Shipping: Europe Summit is set to commence in Rotterdam on the 10th and 11th of September 2025. This event will bring together key stakeholders from the shipping, logistics, and maritime industries to explore the transformative impact of digital technologies on the sector. The summit aims to provide a comprehensive platform for sharing insights, discussing challenges, and identifying solutions related to the digitalisation of shipping in Europe.
With the global shipping industry facing increasing pressure to modernize and streamline operations, the Digitalisation in Shipping: Europe Summit will address critical areas of focus such as data management and utilisation, standardisation and interoperability, and training & skill development. These topics are fundamental as the industry moves toward more data-driven decision-making processes. In particular, the summit will delve into the complexities of managing vast quantities of data and ensuring that this data is used effectively to drive operational efficiencies and improve performance.
Key issues like legal and regulatory challenges, including evolving maritime regulations and the need for compliance with international standards, will also be explored in detail. Experts will discuss the legal frameworks surrounding digital transformation, including privacy concerns, data sharing, and intellectual property rights.
The summit will further highlight pressing concerns around cybersecurity, a crucial aspect of digitalisation. As shipping companies increasingly rely on interconnected systems, ensuring robust cybersecurity measures to protect both data and operational assets is paramount.
Operational efficiency and automation will also be covered with a focus on technologies like AI, that are poised to revolutionize the sector. Additionally, the summit will address cultural barriers to data use, recognising that many personnel within organizations may not be accustomed to working with data, potentially hindering the adoption of digital processes.
Overall, the 2025 Digitalisation in Shipping: Europe Summit will provide a unique opportunity for attendees to gain valuable insights into the latest trends and best practices in the maritime industry’s digital transformation journey. Learn more about the ways that ship operators and owners are stepping up to address these issues by joining us this year.

At the event we strive not only to bring you to the same location at the same time as your customers/suppliers/peers, we strive to ensure you meet face-to-face with each and every one of your target contacts and to provide you with the time you need to have multiple unhurried conversations with them and build a lasting business relationship:
• A pre-event informal introduction the evening before the conference
• A minimum of five hours’ networking built into the two day conference agenda
• A networking grid which enables you to make your target contacts aware you are looking for them
• The option to join either social drinks or dinner during the evening of Day One
• ACI’s on-site team will assist you in locating your hard-to-find target contacts & make face-to-face introductions
Of course, if there is anybody you are unable to meet over the two days, ACI’s event team will do their best to initiate contact after the event.
