This page contains links to events that are to be arranged or that have been held by members of INAS. In the latter case, the link will usually point to copies of presentation or to proceedings.
For ICMASS related events, see the first subsection below. For "The International Ship Autonomy and Sustainability Summit", see the section thereafter. For other events, see the final two sections.
The events listed on this page are open to the public. Have a look at the NFAS Conferences section for another overview of conferences. There is also an overview on the ISTS project event pages that are more oriented towards digitalization.
Contact Ørnulf Jan Rødseth if you have updates that should be included here.
The main INAS conference is the International Conference on Maritime Autonomous Surface Ships which is held yearly, normally in November. We are also starting a new ICMASS Symposium series that most likely will occur in the spring. Every second year the main ICMASS conference has been held together with the Maritime and Port Technology conference in Trondheim or Singapore. In between, the location varies. Click on the logo or the link to see an overview of previous and coming events.
The International Ship Autonomy and Sustainability Summit is the leading international conference for decision and strategy makers within the area of autonomous ships. It aims to have an up-to-date and practical foundation and uses panel discussions to present different opinions on topics with relevance for autonomous ships. Renowned specialists on subjects such as technology, regulation and insurance, discuss opportunities and barriers with the users of the technology, such as leaders of new and innovative sea transportation and logistics operations, as well as representatives from the different groups of employees.
