Worldwide Project Consortium (WWPC) members gathered in Toronto, Canada, for their 21st annual membership conference during 3.-6. September. Meeting each other face-to-face, discussing business opportunities and enjoying social events in the stunning and vibrant city of Toronto presented another highlight for the participants.
WWPC local Canadian host and sponsor to the event, Mr. Gerald Hess, President of Ambercor Shipping and Mr. Marcel Hafemann, Vice President of Ambercor Shipping, made sure the group had a great time in Toronto. Member-to-Member sessions, dinners and excursions allowed time to interact with fellow members and sponsors.
The conference agenda gave amble time to interesting presentations from:

In addition the attending members generously contributed with money donations to round up the end result.

• Richard Lee, CNC Freight Services, Malaysia
• Ahmed Dahshan, KML (Khedivial Marine Logistics), Egypt,
