VIII Российско-Германский Логистический Форум
#Логистикасоединяет
April 13th, 2021 - Hybrid (Moscow/Hannover)
Under the motto #LogisticsConnects, BVL Chapter Russia together with the Logistics Alliance Germany successfully held the 8th German-Russian Logistics Forum as a hybrid event on April 13th. 200+ participants, including 80 on site in Moscow, learned in the keynote speeches and the high-level panel discussion that given the dynamic developments in the framework conditions for transport solutions between Germany and Russia, the expansion of existing and the development of new Logistics corridors and chains is of great importance. The German North Sea and Baltic Sea ports have seen significant increases in traffic to and from Russia in recent years. They are intensively developing inexpensive and more environmentally friendly transport alternatives. The digitization is gaining in importance for all actors and requires even more cross-border cooperations for sustainable transport chains and logistics systems of the future. After the forum was only held online last year, this time the subsequent evening reception traditionally provided the opportunity for extensive networking to exchange ideas and develop common ideas for optimizing logistics. Further partners of the forum were the state of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, the ports of Hamburg and Mukran, Bremino and the LUNO group. Traditionally, we hold our forum parallel to TransRussia, which took place for the 25th time this year. 13,000+ specialists came to find out about new logistics offers and supply chain solutions from 215 exhibitors from 22 countries exhibited, including Azerbaijan, Belarus, Belgium, Hungary, Germany, Kazakhstan, Latvia, Mongolia .. 50 companies took part for the first time.

Caspian Europe Forum 2021
- Sustainable positioning of the Caspian region -
February 24th, 2021 - Online
CASPIAN EUROPE FORUM Online-Round-Table "Ports at the Caspian Sea: Competition & Cooperation at the Center of International Corridors" - We discussed with experts and officials the recent developments at the ports and the challenges ahead. One of the panelists was Mirco Nowak, Chairperson, BVL Chapter Russia, with his presentation "Sustainable positioning of the Caspian region through the development and linking of international transport corridors".
Background:
The littoral countries at the Caspian Sea have ambitious plans to establish new ports, develop their current infrastructure and capacities, as the importance of international transit projects such as the One Belt-One Road, the Middle Corridor, and the International North South Transport Corridor (INSTC) are growing. By developing their logistic infrastructure, Astrakhan, Lagan, Baku, Aktau, Turkmenbashi and Anzali are trying to become major mediators in the transit of cargos between Europe and Asia. Each country has the ambition to become the main transport hub in the region and capitalize on this geostrategic advantage. However, the decisive factor for a successful positioning of the Caspian region as a logistics hub will be to generate attractive offers for shippers and logistics companies through joint strategies of the ports, their connectivity and effective linking of existing transport corridors.

In which areas between customs, transport and supply chain can projects for the harmonization of regulations be defined?
