Speaking Engagement

The Implication of Sanctions on Global Shipping—Do They Work and What Comes Next?

Blank Rome partner Matthew J. Thomas will serve as a panelist at TradeWinds’ Shipowners Forum USA 2024, being held Wednesday, April 17, 2024, at the New York Yacht Club in New York, New York.

ABOUT THE PROGRAM

Recent years have seen the shipping industry grapple with a myriad of challenges—some, such as climate change, have been foreseen and others, such as the Houthis attacks in the Red Sea and the impact of the Russia-Ukraine war, have taken the industry by surprise. In the face of volatility, how are shipping leaders tackling the challenges that lie ahead, both known and unknown, while minimizing risk to their business and even maintaining growth? TradeWinds Shipowners Forum USA 2024 will provide unique insights on how to navigate the volatile shipping landscape, and opportunities to network with international industry leaders and discuss market opportunities and the outlook for the industry.

Matt’s panel, “The Implication of Sanctions on Global Shipping—Do they Work and What Comes Next?” will take place from 1:45 to 1:45 p.m. and he will be joined on the panel by moderator Eric Priante Martin (Deputy Editor, TradeWinds), Laura Deegan (Counsel, Miller & Chevalier Chartered), and Brian Maloney (Partner, Seward & Kissel LLP).
