How can ports and cities work hand-in-hand to build a more sustainable future for cruising? In this episode we sit down with Laura Cimaglia, VP of MedCruise and DG & International Affairs at the Port of Taranto. Laura shares the story behind MedCruise’s groundbreaking collaboration with AIVP, the International Association of Port Cities, and the creation of the Cruise Port City Compass – a first-of-its-kind framework guiding sustainable growth at the port–city interface. From managing tourism and strengthening community engagement, to improving passenger experiences and strategic infrastructure investments, Laura discusses how diversity of perspectives is driving meaningful change across the Mediterranean and beyond. She also offers a glimpse into the next phase of MedCruise’s Cruise Community Engagement working group, including how ports, cities, cruise lines, and technology providers are coming together to shape greener, smarter, and more inclusive destinations.
