Smart Ports Russia 2021 –
Conference on the Modernization
of Ports and Terminals
March 24, 2021
Moscow, Marriott Grand Hotel
Smart Ports Russia 2021 will be held
in Moscow (Russia) on March 24, 2021

The conference is focused on sea, river and dry ports and terminals, port administrations, as well as companies operating in related industries.

Port managers and owners, CTOs, top managers responsible for the innovative development and modernization of ports and terminals are among conference participants.

The conference includes a practically focused business program in the format of an extended discussion and Smart Ports Cocktail for establishing informal contacts between the participants.
According to various estimates, the introduction of smart port technologies can increase productivity by 30% or more and cut costs by up to 50%.
The inevitable growth of world cargo turnover, the growing demand for an increase in the speed of cargo handling, the commissioning of larger cargo ships and high–tech equipment at all stages of cargo transportation require ports and terminals interested in further growth not only to comply, but also to anticipate current trends through the introduction of new technologies before competitors. Ports that do not introduce new technologies will rapidly lose their market share as compared to their closest more technologically advanced competitors within several years.


Simultaneous interpretation will be provided in English and Russian
