Globalisation vs regionalisation: impact on cargo and passenger ports
The COVID-19 pandemic and geopolitical tensions have wreaked havoc on many end-to-end supply chains, as well as on seaborne passenger traffic and cruise tourism. At the same time, these phenomena have stimulated near-sourcing, the use of alternative transportation modes, and creative solutions to rebuild reliable supply chain routes and passenger services.
This webinar, featuring experts from the cruise and container industries, will examine how trending regionalisation in cargo movements using transshipment/feeders and short-cruise itineraries are impacting the world's ports and seek an answer to a simple yet complex question: Is globalisation on the way out?
