WCAworld and the China International Freight Forwarders Association (CIFA) co-organize the Sino International conference as a global, open event for all independent freight forwarders, logistics vendors, and industry-related companies. This three-day conference allows all players to connect and expand business opportunities.
The One-on-One meetings, a vital component of the Sino Conference's success, where many delegates have prearranged meetings, ensure meetings with the right key players and maximize returns on their investments. Alongside the meeting tables, many companies can invest in meeting booths, allowing a unique branding opportunity for their companies.
This year Sino is held at the newly renovated Asia World Expo, one of the world's premier exhibition and entertainment venues in Hong Kong. AWE is adjacent to Hong Kong International Airport and a mere 20-minute train ride from downtown Hong Kong's MTR Kowloon station. The atmosphere creates the perfect blend of business meetings at the conference, and attendees can continue building their relationships with one another in a more informal setting after hours.
Sino 2023 will be the largest Sino conference ever held, with over 1500 qualified and experienced freight forwarders expected to attend.
Don't miss your chance to be a part of Sino 2023, a gateway to China and global freight forwarding.
