These projects will connect Asian and European transport networks to significantly shorten delivery time and save transportation costs for delivering goods from Asian to European markets.Participants will learn and discuss how multinational companies can benefit from greater cooperation with the region.

The Forum will bring together public and private senior executives in the fields of transportation policy, transit, customs, logistics and value-added services from the regional countries, along with representatives of the international freight forwarders, EU-based companies, and China and Central Asia-based US manufacturing companies. There will also be select opportunities for private B2B and G2B meetings.
