At this year’s Sea Trade Global in Miami (April 8-11), our very own Senior Designer Ayesha Khan will be moderating a panel on cruise ship design called, ‘Cruise Ship Design: Veterans or Virgins?’ The panel discussion will answer such questions as: What are the pluses and challenges of working with cruise ship design novices versus cruise ship design veterans?

How do those who are unfamiliar with maritime design feel about the steep learning curve? And what is the client’s perspective? The panel will take place on that Wednesday at 10:30AM at the Cruising Innovations Theater.
