The conference held at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre from 23 – 24 November will feature around 70 leading speakers from the shipping and logistics sectors, with some 2,000 from 20 countries expected to attend.

Arkhom Termpittayapaisith, Minister of Transport, Thailand, will deliver a keynote speech at the opening session.

“As the Belt and Road Initiative is turned from vision to action, and the rapid development of logistic technology is speeding up changes in the global supply chain, there is huge demand for logistics and efficient ocean shipment services in Asia,” said Stephen Liang, assistant executive director of the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC).

“As the largest event of its kind in Asia, the Asian Logistics and Maritime Conference strives to provide the ideal platform for the industry to learn about the latest development and explore business opportunities.”
