Transport Logistic Exhibitions Start Global Webinar Day 2020

Oct. 29, 2020

The transport logistic exhibitions, the transport logistic and the air cargo cluster of Messe München, is launching a new purely digital and global platform. At Global Webinar Day 2020 on Nov. 12, international industry representatives will have the opportunity to use the global network of the various trade fairs of the transport logistic exhibitions to obtain information on current issues in the respective markets, free of charge and in a time-saving manner.

Due to the worldwide COVID-19 pandemic, all foreign events of the transport logistic network had to be cancelled this year. With the Global Webinar Day, industry representatives are therefore now offered a digital alternative to virtually meet and exchange knowledge in one day across all time zones. Various webinars will be held on Nov. 12 at the six transport logistic / air cargo locations around the world. Here, decision-makers and experts from the logistics industry will share current assessments and provide valuable market insights. In addition, they will be available to participants to answer questions interactively and discuss opportunities and challenges in the market.

Broad range of topics with regional focus

Each 90-minute webinar focuses on a specific region. China starts with the topic: "Chinese logistics for a growing e-commerce market." This is followed by the organizers in India with the question "When will India become a formidable power in the global air cargo market?” Representatives from Turkey will discuss "What are the chances for Turkey to be the logistics hub of the Eurasian Region?" From South Africa, participants will learn interesting facts about "Future forward, what does it take for Africa to create a competitive landscape for air cargo?" In Europe, "A six months outlook, how are economy and supply chains developing?” The USA will conclude the transport logistic exhibitions Global Webinar Day 2020 with an outlook on "Trends that will shape the growth of air cargo business in the Americas post pandemic" The event language is English with the exception of the webinar in China. The participation is free of charge. In addition, virtual visitors can register for as many sessions as they wish according to their individual interests.
