COVID-19 has impacted communities in multiple regions since its outbreak and continues to spread around the globe. While its further consequence may still take time to be gauged, transportation has been severely stroked, it is more expensive and time-consuming with less available options for passengers and goods to reach their destinations. Several sectors, such as aviation, global maritime shipping, and land transportation –  which are all backbones of the world economy - are facing greater challenges, the derivatives of which will unavoidably extend across  global economy, who find themselves without goods and without workers.

As situation evolves, how could governments and companies respond to the crisis? What actions/measures are being taken by industry leaders to mitigate the risks? What are the stakes taken by our economies in regards to transportation? What are the new opportunities to capture?

This Webinar aims to provide an overview on these fundamental industries, and provide different perspectives on what has happened and what is ahead.
