Hafen Hamburg Marketing e.V. (HHM) is continuing its successful cooperation with Chinese port locations and this year hosted a roadshow featuring three roundtable events in Tianjin, Shenzhen and Shanghai. The event series, titled “German Logistics Roundtable”, took place in Shanghai alongside the China International Import Expo (CIIE), offering partner ports as well as companies from the logistics and industrial sectors an exclusive platform for direct exchange.
China has long been by far the most important trading partner of the Port of Hamburg. With the roundtable in Shanghai, HHM held a key industry meeting in the metropolis for the sixth time. New additions this year included events in Tianjin and Shenzhen, both major maritime economic centres with which Hamburg maintains close relations. Shenzhen and Shanghai are also official partner ports of the Port of Hamburg.
The three events focused on topics shaping the future of global supply chains, including the green transformation of ports, progress in shore power supply and alternative fuels, and strengthening resilience and efficiency in international transport networks. In addition, current projects in the port regions and the close cooperation between partners in Hamburg and China were discussed.
“With the roundtable events in China, we create space for strategic dialogue, deepen the exchange of knowledge between the world’s leading ports, and ultimately promote Asian-European trade. The partnership with our Chinese colleagues is a key element in building a sustainable and stable port industry,” said Inga Gurries, Head of Market Development Asia & Overseas at HHM.
Participants in the roadshow included representatives from Chinese port authorities, shipping lines, logistics service providers and industrial companies. From Hamburg, the Hamburg Port Authority (HPA), Hamburger Hafen und Logistik AG (HHLA), Eurogate, the China-focused logistics provider TSIT, and DB Cargo Transasia contributed to the discussions and networking sessions.
