***Past Event Report***

The Annual International Congress of Ocean (WCO), initiated from 2012, had been successfully organized in Dalian (2012 & 2014), and Hangzhou (2013), attracted more than 1,000 participants from 50 countries. WCO series congresses contribute to offering professionals in the field of ocean a multidisciplinary informative cooperative platform, and it has been the most definite and grand Ocean event in Asia.

With the strong participation from diversified areas, we are proud to say WCO has turned into an important international convention in ocean related fields. We are confident in organizing WCO-2015 which would be better and more successful than WCO-2014.
