Join us again at the New Silk Road Forum VI jointly organized by SCCC and JCC for a BRI assessment. Where will the New Silk Road lead next?
The BRI is creating two new trade corridors – one overland, the other by sea – which are connecting China with its neighbors in the west: Central Asia, the Middle East and Europe. New developments are influencing the Belt and Road. This year, the forum takes a look at several BRI projects, while discussing the impact of recent developments on the New Silk Road.
The forum is jointly organized by the Swiss-Chinese Chamber of Commerce (SCCC) and the Joint Chamber of Commerce Switzerland-Eastern Europe, Central Asia and the South Caucasus (JCC).
