This year’s conference hotel is the SS Rotterdam.

Launched in 1958, the SS Rotterdam is a historic ocean liner and one of the most iconic ships ever built in the Netherlands. 

She served as the flagship of the Holland America Line and was designed for both transatlantic passenger service and luxury cruising. At the time of her launch, she was the largest passenger ship ever constructed in the Netherlands and became a symbol of post-war innovation, craftsmanship, and optimism.

Today, the SS Rotterdam is permanently moored in the port of Rotterdam and has been carefully restored. The ship now operates as a hotel, museum, restaurant, and event venue.

The SS Rotterdam will be the central meeting point for the conference. Conference registration will take place here, as well as the departure point for the day tours, the partner’s program, and the Welcome Parade. The AGM and the Captain’s Dinner will also be held at this location.
