The event will include conferences, seminars and workshops. The first day will focus on inclusive innovation in Indonesia's maritime development, while the second day will focus on Indonesian maritime technology. The final day will feature workshops with Pertamina Maritime Training Center and Offshore Technology Institute.
Batam is once again chosen to host IMOX 2024 due to its strategic location on the busy international trade route, the Strait of Malacca.
