ICOMIA’s World Marinas Conference Is Postponed

The International Council of Marine Industry Associations (ICOMIA)  and P&O Marinas announce the postponement of ICOMIA World Marinas Conference to October 2021, in Dubai, due to the uncertainties and challenges the COVID-19 pandemic poses.

ICOMIA, along with the event host and organizer are working on a possibility for an online event at the end of this year. More information will be shared about the plans in the coming weeks.

With the original main theme being “Marinas empowering tourism and economies,” ICOMIA World Marinas Conference 2021 will continue to focus on planned topics such as regulatory frameworks and barriers, best investment practices, changing the public perception of a marina, new technologies, as well as climate change and environment sustainability.

Considering the worldwide implications posed by COVID-19 in human life, speakers and attendees will have the opportunity to broaden topics and discussions into a more comprehensive perspective, including the impacts of a world pandemic in the nautical sector.
