    Port of Baku is honored to be the first port in Central Eurasia to host IAPH conference.

    The main theme for the IAPH Baku 2018 World Ports Conference is “Ports of Future: Building Hubs, Accelerating Connectivity.”

    The four-day conference will focus on the important and interesting topics like emerging transport corridors around the world that contribute to domestic economies in free trade zones and neighboring countries, concentrating on the topics of “SmartPorts”, “Green Ports” as well as marine tourism.

    The conference agenda also includes a technical visit to the new Port of Baku in Alat which is a main part of Azerbaijan’s grand hub vision.
