All Hands on Deck - Accelerating the Pathway to Net Zero

July saw the IMO reveal a groundbreaking revision to the greenhouse gas (GHG) strategy, which would require international shipping to hit net zero by 2050 and reach indicative targets to reduce emissions by 30% and 80% by 2030 and 2040, respectively. But, while the decision by all member countries demonstrates a united front against climate change, it also brings a wave of questions on how this can be executed, with many aspects uncertain, from financing to challenges surrounding alternative fuels and the implementation of new technologies.

As the second largest ship owning nation, Japan will play a significant part in the green transformation of the industry, yet in order to do so, Japanese shipping will need to rethink and reshape their businesses.

Following on from this successful forum since 2018, TradeWinds will once again gather key players to meet at the iconic Conrad Tokyo to discuss the recent announcement from the IMO and its impact on the shipping community, particularly within Japan. Join this event and be amongst leading Japanese and international shipowners, shipbuilding executives, commodity traders, charterers, trading companies and ship finance capital providers.

This is a bilingual event and simultaneous translation will be provided onsite.
