The Global Forum for Autonomous, Smart and Remotely Operated Vessels

For a decade now, Autonomous Ship Conference and Expo have provided a dedicated forum and showcased the latest and next-generation solutions and technologies to enable varying degrees of automation – remote shore control, automated and smart ships, full autonomous navigation and COLREGs-compliant autonomous operation. Speakers from Europe, the Americas and Asia make this is a true global meeting place for discussion of the latest projects. From the sensors on board, creating machine vision, the reliability and maintenance of machinery in unmanned vessels and stable and cybersecure software, to national and international rules and regulations, there are many challenges that need to be addressed before this technology can be put into operation and the Autonomous Ship Conference has been the place to discuss the technology, approaches, issues and solutions since 2015.

Autonomous Ship Conference and Expo brings together ship designers, fleet owners, naval architects, classification societies, equipment manufacturers and maritime research organisations. Leading experts from around the world will present their views and current findings. With case studies of actual projects, academic research and results from the latest trials, the 2025 Conference and Expo provides a valuable opportunity to exchange ideas and network with this pioneering community of maritime engineers.
