The forum was held in the context of many new characteristics. The implementation of free trade agreements such as CPTPP, EVFTA, RCEP requires businesses to make efforts to improve competitiveness. The Covid-19 epidemic has been controlled, but the socio-economic impacts after the pandemic along with the fighting in Ukraine are causing recession and inflation in many markets around the world, strongly affecting businesses in general and logistics service businesses in particular.
