New focus on Latin American seaports
The global economic downturn has challenged seaports throughout the Western Hemisphere to reduce expenses, seek synergistic partnerships and compete for new business opportunities. To address both the hardships and opportunities facing Latin American seaports, the American Association of Port Authorities (AAPA) is bringing its XVIII Latin American Congress of Ports to Miami, July 8-10.
"Improving freight mobility and enabling a nation’s seaports to be more efficient, productive and secure are the best investments a country can make to reinvigorate its economy," said Kurt Nagle, AAPA’s president and CEO. "The goal of this conference is to give Latin American seaport industry officials a forum of their own to exchange ideas, share lessons learned and benefit from the collective knowledge of their industry peers."
The Latin American Congress of Ports is being hosted by the Port of Miami, and program supporters include Jay Malina International Trade Consortium of Miami-Dade County, the Port Authority of Manta (Ecuador) and Klein Systems Group Ltd. This conference is a required course for those seeking their Latin American Professional Port Manager (PPM) certification.
