The Coastlink Conference, organised by Mercator Media, is held in leading maritime cities across both the UK and Europe.
Within the last several years the conference has taken place in Southampton (2019), Antwerp (2022), Liverpool (2023) and Port of Amsterdam (2024).
In 2025 Coastlink will take place in the Port of Bilbao from 29-30 April and is set to cover a number of leading sector topics including the implementation of Green corridors, supply chain logistics and the energy transition.
The Port of Bilbao is the leading port for the Atlantic route. Its facilities are located across 400 hectares of land and offer multiple specialised terminals for both cargoes and traffics including break-bulk and container, in addition to liquid and solid bulks.
Multimodal connections offer a key link with the main Spanish and European roadway and railway networks, producing a smooth and direct freight movement route, for both a fast and sustainable supply chain link.
Coastlink is a neutral pan-European network dedicated to the promotion of short sea and feeder shipping, and, the intermodal transport networks that support the sector. The conference promotes debate on the challenges and opportunities affecting the industry, whilst enabling conference delegates and participants to establish and build on relationships through the networking opportunities on offer.
It is a place for industry professionals to meet and discuss future innovation, economic and environmental considerations – and develop partnerships that will help build a sustainable future.
