20 November 2014 | 11:00-19:00 | Grand Elysée | Hamburg
The shipping industry is in the midst of a profound structural change long gone in other industries. The boom
years of double-digit growth rates are gone, a new realism is spreading. What does the industrialisation of
shipping imply for all parties?
How may costs and processes be optimised? Will price competition and narrow margins dominate daily business
alone? Will smaller providers be left with only niche markets? Is the credo »only big is beautiful« the single truth
for investors? And what is to be expected from the banks classically committed to shipping in the future?
