This was an opportunity to highlight the importance of a collaborative relationship between AIMS and BIA. Other guest speakers included Kell Dillon (General Manager, Maritime Safety Queensland), Kim Gerbers (COO, Gladstone Ports Corporation) and Chris Barber (National Operations Manager Central, AMSA).

The day's program included a wide range of topics such as Biofuels, Ship Design, Insurances, Fire Suppression, Australian Builders Plate, Employment, Lithium Batteries and AI, culminating with a Conference Dinner and Awards Ceremony.
