No, not in the fullest, especially true if a speaker on forehand labels it as classified and not to be redistributed. Please respect this!

No. The badge and lanyard have been sponsored and we use a type that stays fixed and with texts for enhanced visible.

I have been at Shippax Ferry Conference a number of times over the years both as delegate and speaker. It is a great opportunity to meet business friends in a relaxed and relevant environment to discuss current topics and opportunities. I see this as one of the yearly “must attend” for people in our industry and truly look forward to the next one.
