In this Xeneta Summit signature session, we will take a deep dive into what is really going on in the ocean and air freight industry. Price has always been a matter of supply and demand... at least we thought that. The session will look behind the curtain at the record-high rate levels. We will follow the disruptions and analyze service provider behavior on the supply side meeting the staggering customer demand in the aftermath of the COVID-19 crisis. What was the influence of the black swan events and what are the stakeholders going to expect in the upcoming tender season and years to come?
