Ensuring convenient access to global trade by proving the indispensable logistics connectivity is the best political investment policy makers can make. It will foster growth, allow for energy savings and promote the sustainability of global trade beyond 2015.
The event will address the global nature of logistics as the main facilitator of global trade. It will showcase that a successful logistics sector is both a cause and effect of greater connectivity with the rest of the world, and the prosperity which comes with it.
