Unmanned ships steered by algorithms pose great challenges for the international legal framework of the shipping industry, however, they also have siginificant potential, in particular, to make short-distance maritime transport economically profitable. International lectures on liability and the coexistance of conventional and autonomous ships will be followed by a discussion of the most pressing (regulatory) issues with practicioners. The focus of the second day will be on the vulnerability of maritime infrastructures. Practice-orientated and legal lectures will present answers to the questions of how to define and strengthen resilience.
