JAXPORT has announced speakers for the After the Storm: Post-Hurricane Puerto Rico and the Path to Recovery panel at JAXPORT’s 2019 Logistics & Intermodal Conference scheduled for April 30, 2019:

  • Paul Robbins, Former CEO; Caribbean Shipping Co. (Panel moderator)

Hurricane Maria devastated Puerto Rico in September 2017 and the island is still recovering. From power outages to supply chain challenges and more, panelists will explain what it was like to be in Puerto Rico before, during and immediately after the storm. The group will also provide an update on the island’s infrastructure and business recovery, as well as explore challenges currently impacting trade with the island.

Post-Hurricane Puerto Rico and the Path to Recovery is part of a series of panel discussions and keynote presentations at the conference addressing issues common to logistics and intermodal decision makers.

Other JAXPORT 2019 Logistics & Intermodal Conference topics include:

  • The Political Landscape and its Impact on International Trade
  • Update on Ocean Carrier Alliances
  • Where is Finished Vehicle Logistics Headed?
  • Business Disruptors and Global Innovation Trends

Registration is open for the conference, which will be held April 29- May 1 at the Sawgrass Marriott Golf Resort & Spa in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida. All previous JAXPORT Conferences have sold out.
