A new industry conference and exhibition in Hamburg brought together over a thousand international decision-makers, technology providers and industry experts to discuss solutions for resilient and future-ready ports.
The inaugural edition of All About Ports at the CCH – Congress Center Hamburg concluded on 3 September 2026, having drawn 1,100 participants over two days. The strong turnout highlighted the port industry’s demand for a platform that, for the first time, takes a holistic view of all challenges and future issues facing the global port sector, including digitalisation and AI, sustainability and alternative propulsion systems, infrastructure and logistics, port security, and process automation.
All About Ports took place alongside SMM, the leading trade fair for the maritime industry, and LogiNext Germany.
“As an international port and logistics hub, Hamburg is closely connected to global trade flows and is therefore an ideal place to discuss the future of the port industry. With All About Ports, we have created a platform that for the first time takes a holistic view of all aspects of ports,” said Claus Ulrich Selbach, vice-president exhibitions maritime & energy at Hamburg Messe und Congress.
“All About Ports has made an impressive start. The momentum, international character and high quality of the discussions were truly inspiring. We were able to establish numerous new contacts, discuss exciting projects and exchange views with leading industry players on the future of ports. We are already looking forward to the next edition,” said Shaul Schneider, executive chairman of Ashdod Port Company.
The next edition will take place 17-18 November 2027.
