Welcome
AIS & Maritime AI Summit 2025
After four years, we are thrilled to welcome you back to the AIS & AI Summit in Hamburg. Just in time for the week of the Maritime Eisbein Dinner, we kick things off on the evening of 4 November with our traditional Pub Night — the perfect setting to reconnect, catch up and warm up for the event.
On 5 and 6 November we lead into two full days of in-depth conference sessions. This year we are not only diving deep into AIS, we are also broadening the perspective to explore advancements in maritime artificial intelligence. Expect insightful discussions with leading experts from the hardware and software sectors as we examine the current landscape and future development of platforms, protocols and standards.
On the first evening we warmly invite you to join our Gala Dinner — an evening of inspiring conversations, great food and a festive atmosphere.
