We are pleased to invite you to a web-conference on postal, delivery and e-commerce economics and policy 19 May 2020
Back in February, we sent a “save the date” for Tuesday 19 May for the annual postal, delivery and e-commerce economics conference in Copenhagen. Since then, the COVID-19 emergency and its response has taken priority across the community of interested parties. Important efforts are ongoing. At the same time the economic policy conversations about postal, delivery and e-commerce remain as important as ever.
Instead of the in-person event, we would like to invite you to take part in a short web-conference on the afternoon of Tuesday 19 May from 14.00 – 16.00.
This online event is not a substitute, but a complement to the annual in-person event. We postpone the in-person event to after the summer, if the logistics conditions and guidance from authorities will allow this.
The web-conference is planned to cover:
We have now closed for registrations. You will receive an e-mail from ce@copenhageneconomics.com with a link to participation.
