The American Equity Underwriters, Inc. (AEU), the leading provider of workers’ compensation for waterfront employers, announced today that the AEU National Forum will be held April 16 and 17, 2019 at the Sheraton New Orleans in New Orleans, Louisiana.
Now in its 13th year, the AEU National Forum attracts more than 100 maritime industry professionals annually with relevant, interactive presentations and discussions on safety, claims, personnel, operations, and leadership.

It’s a unique opportunity for everyone in maritime to come together and discuss their biggest challenges.”
