“We are delighted to announce the conference agenda for Intermodal Europe 2024,” said Fan Landers, Event Director of Intermodal Europe.

“In keeping with our theme of securing global trade, this year’s programme of talks will take a close look at the ever-evolving complexities that are currently affecting the global supply chain, emerging trends, and potential challenges, and where the opportunities lie for securing growth,” continued Landers.

The agenda will get underway with a look at how current and emerging threats to global trade routes are impacting the global container market. The conversation will then flow to consider compliance, sustainability AI, risk management, and trade security in further conversations.

“In addition to sector-specific sessions, this year’s agenda will also consider key learnings from other industries. For instance, we are excited to welcome a session from The European Space Agency ESA, which will no doubt offer an incredible insight into how space technologies can be applied to the intermodal sector as a whole, specifically its Business Applications & Space Solutions Program,” continued Landers.
