AAPA: 21 Ports to Receive Awards (USA)

21 Ports to Receive Awards

The American Association of Port Authorities (AAPA), a trade association representing leading port authorities throughout the Western Hemisphere, has selected 21 seaports to be recognized for exemplary communications projects and programs at its annual convention and awards luncheon this fall.

Winning entrants in AAPA’s 47th annual Communications Awards Program will be recognized at a November 12 awards luncheon in conjunction with AAPA’s 103rd Annual Convention and Expo in Houston, Texas, which runs November 9-13.

When port authorities communicate strategically with their many audiences, including their communities, business leaders and policymakers, they’re better able to show their tremendous value as drivers of economic development, environmental enhancement and job creation,” said Kurt Nagle, AAPA’s president and CEO. “This competition helps our member ports by rewarding effective communications and highlighting best practices and lessons learned.”
