Everything happens on board. No transfers, no taxis, and nowhere for the conversation to break up.
01
The DEXS 5K
Tuesday 13 April, 06:45
Departing from the ss Rotterdam
Five kilometres along the Maas before the day starts, out from Katendrecht and back along the waterfront.
Flat, well lit and one of the better runs you will get at a conference. Open to all delegates whatever your pace, with a lead runner at the front and a sweeper at the back so nobody gets left behind.
Back on board by 07:45, in good time for registration.
Hosted drinks in the ship’s original first class lounges at the close of day one, a short walk from the Theatre and the exhibition floor.
All delegates

Gala Dinner and Recognition Awards
Tuesday 13 April, from 19:00
The Grand Ballroom
The flagship dinner of the summit, held in the ship’s principal ballroom. A drinks package is included throughout, and the DEXS Recognition Awards are presented over dinner across six categories, judged across basins rather than within one.
Drinks on the exhibition floor as the summit closes. Early enough to reach an evening flight from Schiphol, twenty five minutes from the ship by direct train.
All delegates

Staying Aboard
12 to 15 April
The ss Rotterdam is a working hotel as well as the summit venue. A delegate room rate is held for the summit nights, with breakfast included and no transfer between hotel and conference at either end of the day.
Rooms are released in stages, so early booking is worth it, particularly for anyone staying through to the yard tour on 15 April.
Booking details to follow.
