International Port and Terminal Technology Conference & Exhibition

Port & Terminal Technology USA 2027 is the 16th edition of the specialist two-day technical conference and exhibition for the container port and terminal industry, organised by MCI Media Ltd. It returns to Houston, Texas, USA on 20-21 April 2027.

The event convenes port authorities, terminal operators, shipping lines, consultancies, dredging and maritime construction firms, engineering companies, and suppliers of cargo-handling and terminal equipment. The technical programme addresses terminal automation, Terminal Operating Systems (TOS), cybersecurity and digitalisation, cargo-handling technology and simulation, port infrastructure, electrification and environmental performance, asset management, and future trends in terminal operations.

Deliberately focused rather than generalist, the conference typically attracts 150-200 industry professionals, with a delegate-only exhibition showcasing technology and equipment suppliers. The 2027 Houston venue/hotel is to be announced by the organiser.
