A joint conference on 7 March hosted by ChinaLux and the Luxembourg Chamber of Commerce aims to take a "deep dive" into the opportunities and experiences in the China-Luxembourg logistics sectors in relation to China's One Belt One Road (OBOR) initiative, examining new strategies and markets that might arise, what the initiative means for the forging of new partnerships, and whether it is a threat to existing projects in Luxembourg, or complementary?

The conference will be attended by Minister of Sustainable Development and Infrastructure, François Bausch, and is part of a series which endeavours to introduce and explore opportunities for Luxembourg under the OBOR initiative – an intercontinental trade and infrastructure project focused on forging new economic corridors between China and Eurasia. 

The conference will be held at the Chamber of Commerce on 7 March, starting at 17:00. 

Entrance is free of charge, and participants should register online before 3 March.
