Transport Mode Decisions in Intermodal Supply Chains: Determining Factors

The Dennie Lockefeer Chair hosts the free-of-charge hybrid lecture ‘Transport Mode Decisions in Intermodal Supply Chains: Determining Factors’ on

Tuesday 21 January 2025

from 4:00 p.m. until 6:00 p.m.

We are delighted to invite you for the fifth lecture organized within the framework of the Dennie Lockefeer Chair, which focuses on intermodality. The event will be held in English.

Given the great international reach of the previous lecture, we are pleased to offer this lecture again in a hybrid format. The fifth lecture will explore the determining factors of hinterland mode choice in an intermodal supply chain context. Industry panels will address and discuss insights on this topic from different decision-making perspectives.

In preparation for this 5th lecture, we ask you in advance to complete the following survey regarding mode choice decisions (deadline 14 January).

The lecture is free-of-charge, but registration is required.

Please register your presence before 14 January 2025 using the registration button below.
