Intermodal Asia returns to Shanghai for 2016
Intermodal Asia will return to Shanghai from 22nd – 24th March 2016. Last year the second annual Intermodal Asia saw a growth of 30%, as an influx of over 7,000 visitors joined 130 exhibitors and over 40 speakers, across three days at the Shanghai World Expo Exhibition and Convention Center (SWEECC).
“The success of Intermodal Asia 2015 fully established the event as Asia’s annual exhibition and conference for the container, transport and logistics industries” says Sophie Ahmed, Event Director. “Now in its third year, Intermodal Asia has received even more industry support from associations, international and local exhibitors, high-level speakers, new media partners and senior industry professionals in the run-up to the event in March.”
The Intermodal Asia 2016 conference programme will once again feature three conference theatres, free-to-attend within the exhibition hall. The programme will present the opportunity to explore the current trends and issues faced by the intermodal industry, focusing on strategy and perspectives, latest innovations and the newest technological solutions. Sessions include; Global economic outlook for the container industry by Drewry, Cyber security in the Maritime Industry by the Security Association for the Maritime Industry (SAMI), The China-Central Asia-Western Asia Corridor by the International Transport Union and an Intra-Asia Cold Chain Logistics Forum.
There are multiple events confirmed to take place during the three days of Intermodal Asia 2016.
