Our world is constantly changing. How can we come up with an appropriate response to the major challenges we face today and those that are yet to come? How can a good multimodal connectivity between ports and hinterland contribute to a successful international supply chain network? Is synchromodality thé ultimate solution for sustainable chemical logistics? Which choices are good ones, and on which ones should we let pass? H.Essers invites you for an interactive and inspiring event with renowned speakers at the Challenges in Chemical Logistics.
Contiguously, we offer you a unique visit to our multi-modally connected Seveso site at Genk Dry Port. Moreover, you will also have many opportunities to exchange experiences with your peers from the chemical industry.
