#Shippax2015 - Shippax Ferry Shipping Conference 2015 hosted in Rotterdam (April 21-23) will be held on board P&O Ferries Pride of Rotterdam and PDMS will be among the official exhibitors.

The Ferry Shipping Conference now in its 13th year, was founded and organised by Shippax and BOLT Consulting, one of the largest conferences in the ferry industry. Around 400 ferry shipping delegates are expected to attend from Europe and further afield.

The anticipated conference will cover commercial performance, industry insight and debates, and will feature exciting industry speakers and an exhibition with key industry players.

Glasgow based PDMS have recently expanded their ferry ticketing and reservations offering with their Compass ferry ticketing and reservations product, through their UK subsidiary, Professional Data Management Services (UK) Limited, who acquired certain parts of the business and assets of Maxima Information Group in September 2014.

The long-term client base of PDMS's ferry software is currently in use by Caledonian MacBrayne, Orkey Ferries, Pentland Ferries, Shetland Islands Council, Western Ferries and Ticket Hour.

Commenting on the news of PDMS' plans to promote Compass across the international ferry, David Stickland, Sales Director of PDMS said, "Having attended the 39th Annual Interferry Conference in Vancouver last year, we are particularly excited to be exploring further relationships at the 2015 Ferry Shipping Conference.

"Last year was an extremely positive year for us in terms of strategic growth and market positioning and this exhibition will provide us with the ideal platform from which to advance our Compass ferry ticketing and reservation software into the wider market".
