Welcome from Conference Chair: Jim Walker


Welcome to the PIANC America 2023 Conference! This will be the first such gathering in the Western Hemisphere, and PIANC USA is excited to host the technical specialists in navigation, marine construction, dredging, and port operations as we convene to share thoughts and ideas and hear presentations from experts. There will be ample opportunities to network with fellow navigation colleagues and build relationships throughout the event.

There are sponsorship opportunities and exhibition booths for companies to get their message in front of a large diverse audience that will be designing, writing specifications, and selecting products at ports, marinas, and other navigation facilities.

The navigation sector is well-positioned to capitalize on the recent significant investments in ports, maritime infrastructure, and the transportation sector within the countries in the Western Hemisphere. The PIANC America 2023 Conference will be an opportunity for our navigation community to enable safe and efficient 21st-century freight movement in the Americas and beyond.

We look forward to your participation!
