In October this year, Expoship Riomar returns to the Museum of Modern Art in the centre of the city. This is a move of enormous significance for it places the exhibition at the heart of Rio's business centre and only a short distance from the city's international and domestic airports. A high attendance is thus anticipated. As in previous years, a conference will be linked to the exhibition. The two day programme will aim to identify and examine the key issues affecting the Latin American sea transport industry today.
