Editorial programme


World Port Development is an independent publication that strives to offer balanced and informed reporting, providing a complete overview for all concerned. We talk to manufacturers, operators, port staff and customers to present the whole picture, not a one-sided argument.

Our 2008 Editorial Programme is a reflection of this, and is based around extensive reader research and feedback received from our eclectic and numerous industry contacts - the 2008 World Port Development Editorial Programme is designed to maximise reader interest.  

In tune with our readership, and their concerns, World Port Development acknowledges your needs and interests, and our editorial staff report with a vigour and enthusiasm that distinguishes us from unchallenging magazines that report ABOUT ports and terminals. We place ourselves on the industry frontline, and report from within the maritime sector FOR ports and terminals. It is utterly dedicated to balanced reporting of the facts. Debate and interest is only stimulated if a range of viewpoints and arguments are considered, and this is exactly what this magazine is all about. It is a forum that serves its readers, with no other agenda.

With this broad spectrum of opinion and reporting comes a wide and varied readership. World Port Development appeals to those involved in the ports and terminals industry at many levels - something we can boast confidently, based on a spiralling subscriber base and widespread industry acclaim.
