The 28th edition of the AAPA Latin American Congress of Ports (https://aapalatinoamerica.com/en/) continued to strengthen its status as the largest event in the Latin American port sector by gathering more than 450 delegates from 35 countries this past November 19-21 in Miami, Florida. Organized in partnership with PortMiami (http://www.miamidade.gov/portmiami/), the National Administration of Ports of Uruguay (ANP) (http://www.anp.com.uy/Inicio), the Port of Cartagena (https://www.puertocartagena.com/es), Colombia, and the Port of Rosario (ENAPRO) (http://www.enapro.com.ar/), this year’s Congress included a technical tour of PortMiami, two days of academic panels, the signing of two MOUs, an exhibition of leading port solution providers from around the world and an intense social agenda that culminated with a closing gala aboard the Grand Floridian yacht.
