EfficienSea 2 is an EU Funded Horizon 2020 Project, led by the Danish Maritime Authority, with 32 partners and a budget of €11m. It runs from May 2015 – April 2018.

The EfficienSea2 mid-term conference “Getting Connected to the Future” takes place on 8-9 November 2016, in Copenhagen.

Technology and smart concepts are rapidly evolving within the field of maritime navigation, communication and administration. The conference will address the following questions:

– Will The Maritime Cloud solve identity management and foster Big Data at sea?

– With the alpha release of the regional e-Navigation pilot, the BalticWeb platform, can the Baltic Sea become a role model for global roll out of e-Navigation?

– How can standardised, navigational and administrative services reduce the risk of accidents, increase efficiency and create incentives to comply with emission regulations?
