A warm welcome
The delegation received a warm welcome by the Dublin Port authorities. CEO Mr Eamon O’Reilly presented the port of Dublin’s activities and future plans. After that, the delegation was invited on a bus tour through Dublin harbour. In the afternoon, the members of the Dutch delegation presented themselves and met Dublin authorities and companies at a network event. Appropriately, the Dutch Embassy had provided Dutch beers for the somewhat long transit to Cork in the late afternoon. The city of Cork had invited the delegation for a splendid dinner that included traditional Irish music and dancers. Another warm welcome! In the village of Cobb, the delegation had the opportunity to share experiences with their Irish counterparts during a panel discussion led by Royal Boskalis Westminster and the Port of Rotterdam.
