Roundtable on port research

As part of the conference, we are organising a round table on 24 November from 18:00 to 20:30 at the Port Center of Le Havre on the contributions of research on maritime and port issues.

This round table will be introduced by a presentation by Arnaud Serry of the White Paper on Port Research, coordinated by Arnaud Serry, Eric Foulquier, Gülgün Alpan and Antoine Frémont.

Then, the round table moderated by Antoine Frémont will bring together :

• The Préfet Pascal Sanjuan, interministerial delegate for the development of the Seine Valley
• Alain Schuhl, Director General for Science at the CNRS
• Hubert Dejean de la Bâtie, Mayor of Saint-Adresse, VP of the Normandy Region and VP of Le Havre Seine-Métropole (in charge of innovation, energy transition and major equipment projects)
• Cédric Virciglio, Director of Strategic Management at HAROPA
• Julien Fernandez, Head of the Port Strategy and Development Office at the DGITM
• Robin Poté, Director of Circoë, VP in charge of innovation at Logistique Seine Normandie

The speakers of the round table will present their main research issues, their current links with universities and research centres and how to improve these links.

There will be time for discussion with the audience, allowing the conference participants and the keynote speakers to react to the round table discussions.
