A Maritime Industry Tradition
Held every year in New Orleans, the show attracts 15,000 members of the commercial marine industry, who come together from around the world to network, learn, spot new industry trends, and uncover innovative products and solutions.
As attendees have been quoted saying, “everyone in the marine industry is here.” This includes the industry’s most innovative suppliers and vendors, who for three days transform the Morial Convention Center exhibition hall into a small city of diverse trade show booths, exhibits, and product demonstrations.
From exhibits to the Annual Conference Program and even the unique night life of the Big Easy, it’s your annual chance to network, shop, connect, and get in the know among the best in the business. It’s a maritime industry tradition. And through good times and bad, this is the marine industry’s show.
he Mississippi Valley Trade & Transport Council will once again host the 38th Annual Mississippi Valley Trade & Transport Conference on February 19-20 2020. The conference will be held at the Omni Royal Orleans in the New Orleans French Quarter.
Panelists will discuss various topics including river statistics, port updates and commodities.
We especially thank our generous sponsors who make this event possible.

Understanding how valuable and scarce your time is, we will use the same format we have for the most recent OMSA Conferences, that is meetings from 2:00 to 5:00 pm and a reception to follow from 5:00 to 6:30 pm
Also understanding that you look to OMSA to provide quality actionable information that you can take back to your company, we have a great agenda planned, including:
- A Cybersecurity Panel with expert Attorneys and Insurance Providers;
- Incident Response: You’ve reported the incident… now what? An industry expert’s best practices;
- A Social Media Expert’s guide for how to manage and protect your organization’s social profile; and
- Networking Reception!
The 2020 JOC Breakbulk & Project Cargo Conference will provide information and insights that cargo owners can use to plan and execute shipments of breakbulk and project cargoes through US and international ports.
