Both the air freight and shipping industries are currently running into some turbulence. The air freight industry is being buffeted by the increasing winds of change and the shipping industry has to deal with the surge in rogue waves, both sparked by the outset of the COVID-19 global crisis.
Experts on both the air freight and shipping industries will present the current state of affairs, ways to cope with the situation and the possible future developments.
Mr. Zhanfu Yu, Head of Roland Berger’s China’s Aerospace & Defence (A&D) practice, will be presenting the current state of affairs in the aviation industry and the impact that the COVID-19 has had. Mr. Tim Wickman, Managing Director, Asia, at the World Shipping Council (WSC), will, on the other hand, present the current situation of the shipping industry and the effects the COVID-19 has had at a global scale. Ms. Jing Wu, VP of Public Affairs and Chair of the Working Group, will be chairing and moderating the working group meeting.
