THE Asian Logistics, Maritime and Aviation Conference (ALMAC) 2023, the annual flagship event for logistics and supply chain industry, jointly organized by the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) and Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR), returns to the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre on November 21 and 22.
In his latest Policy Address, HKSAR Chief Executive John Lee proposed measures to strengthen Hong Kong's position as an international maritime centre and aviation hub.
This year's conference, themed Future-proofing Supply Chains: Diversification, Decarbonization, Digitalization, will focus on adopting diverse strategies to address global trade changes and uncertainties, promoting carbon reduction, facilitating sustainable development and globally showcasing Hong Kong's advantages. Digitalization will also emerge as a key supply chain management trend and industry experts will share insights on accelerating business development through digital transformation, the HKTDC said in a statement.
Prominent industry leaders will gather at ALMAC, with representatives from industry giants such as CMA CGM, Dell, DHL, FedEx, UPS and JD Logistics. They will share insights on five key thematic areas: Global trade outlook and supply chain trends, supply chain diversification, connectivity and collaboration driving trade development, sustainability, and innovation and technology.
Dr Patrick Lau, deputy executive director of the HKTDC, said: "With the Government's new Policy Address announcing a number of initiatives to promote Hong Kong's logistics industry by sea, land and air, and the launch of the Action Plan on Modern Logistics Development, the ALMAC is a timely event to help the industry explore new opportunities and develop co-operation."
