But despite being such an essential part of life, the deepest parts of the world’s oceans are still largely unexplored. According to the GEBCO, merely 25 percent of the seafloor has been mapped with accuracy and less than 18 percent in the Arctic. But the state of sea exploration is changing fast. The dark, high-pressure conditions of the ocean depths that once made research there impossible are now being explored with cutting-edge technology. That new tech and the discoveries to come from it are the focus of modern Ocean Mapping.

The European Commission and the High Representative recently adopted a Joint Communication on an enhanced EU maritime security strategy aimed at ensuring peaceful use of the seas and protecting the maritime sector from new threats. They also adopted an updated action plan that will implement the strategy. Up to 99% of global data flows are transmitted through submarine cables, which are also subject to cyber and hybrid attacks. It is mandatory to make the Underwater Domain even more secure from a cybernetic point of view. The maritime safety is of vital importance for the European Union and its Member States and, precisely in this sense, the European Commission and the High Representative Borrell have foreseen an updated action plan which will implement the strategy. .

This will be obtained following an Action Plan on three steps: 1) Obtain a mapping of the Naval & Aero Naval Defence sector value chain post COVID-19 crisis to better understand the European ecosystem’s structure as well as the possible transnational synergies and complementarities. This will allow the Consortium to draw the lessons concerning disruption and dependencies and manage a more efficient industrial strategy (including green and digital transition) to engage better resilience and competitiveness in a long-term European strategic approach. 2) Put in place actions to support SMEs in their up-skilling towards strategic technologies innovations that will be the base of their path towards resilience and autonomy boosting European sovereignty in Defence sector. Support measures will be for example training workshops and vouchers. 3) Go to international is the third step providing for other supporting measures (e.g. workshops, vouchers, studies of international markets) to help SMEs to acquire skills in some third countries markets as well as internationalisation to foster synergies and new business lines towards these non-EU countries. This will foster action plans to enhance the European position in the value chain and engage resilience activities by supporting innovation processes and helping SMEs join forces and better cooperate with major public and private groups including in European and within international markets. These plans would have a strong focus on resilience and European synergies.

Ports, therefore, assume an increasingly central role in the current energy transition process, becoming energy hubs - energy storage and distribution points - and encouraging the consumption of green energy by the entire maritime cluster and inland supply chain. Which will be the next steps of this new path for ports? Moderator Luca Bergonzoli, Managing Partner Integra Società Benefit Panelists Jean Pierre Lamblin, Founder CO2 Tracker Lucas Bosser, Director for Transport and Energy, Conference of Peripheral Maritime Regions (CPMR) Beladjine Boumedienne, Senior lecturer, university of science and technology, expert in green shipping, ministry of high education, consultant CETIC Adriana Salazar, Blue Economy Expert, Union for the Mediterranean Sergio Pedrazzini, Sole Administrator Solar Solutions, Gruppo Fratelli Visconti Federico Aleotti, Researcher RSE - Ricerca sul Sistema Energetico 14:30: AUTNONAME - “Automation and remote control of the Noname® system” ROOM 1 - Sponsored by Elettronica14:30: AUTNONAME - “Automation and remote control of the Noname® system” ROOM 1 - Sponsored by Elettronica – Limescale and biofilm have always been a problem in all circuits in which water circulates, greatly reducing their flow rates and consequently their efficiency. The concretions themselves form a favorable environment for the proliferation of potentially pathogenic microorganisms for users. In the military, this issue takes on even greater significance and is closely linked to the operation of the maritime military instrument. The problem is amplified when maintenance of the system/equipment has to be carried out resulting in long technical downtime and consequent suspension of service. The timeless and effectiveness of interventions are, therefore, decisive in the overall economy of plant management. The Noname® system, which uses a food-grade purity gas mixture, promises to eliminate calcareous concretions and biofilms, eliminating failure times and ptimizing shipboard systems. The conference will showcase the results of AUTNONAME project experiments conducted at the University of Genoa, the use of the gas mixture, and the remotely developed continous control system. Speakers Professor Agostino G. Bruzzone, Full Professor at DIME, Genoa University, Principal Investigator of AUTNONAME Project – Genoa University Results of experiments conducted at the University of Genoa on the AUTNONAME system and possible future developments.

Everyday Sea Shepherd volunteers goes to the sea to defend its inhabitants and what do we want to do? Looking back in our history there have been tragic pages where people have chosen to become partisans to gain freedom. Today it is up to us to become fighters, partisans to save our species from absurd logics that exploit the planet. So it’s up to us to pick a side.

The relationship between mankind and the sea can be interpreted in all respects as a New Frontier. The seas, even within the specific and dimensional differences that distinguish them, are fundamental elements, for example, in the formation of the climate, and therefore the study of the so-called “Climate-Ocean Nexus”. It is now of fundamental importance to try to understand the variables that characterize the phenomenon of Climate Change.

In this context, limiting environmental damages is not enough: alongside the effort to reduce emissions, it is necessary to develop circular and regenerative models that enable nature-based solutions with vitality and health for economic systems, generating new business opportunities for all the blue economy players and significantly benefiting marine ecosystems. The session will also focus on the crucial role of ports in reducing marine litter through effective waste management.

The exponential rate of innovation required to meet these challenges can only be achieved through digital transformation. As the boundaries between industries blur and the cost of failure becomes business-critical, the pace of digital transformation must accelerate. One way to speed this transformation while ensuring an optimized product life cycle is through engineering simulation.
