Hello Shipping Podcast lovers, the show is available on all podcast platforms. This is where we talk about the coolest industry on the planet and help raise the maritime industry's profile.  

The shipping industry is the backbone of international trade, contributing to globalisation and development, yet we are the invisible industry. The people within the industry make the world go around; they are maritime professionals – strong characters with an interesting background. I meet them, and we talk about the future of the shipping industry and what's happening right now.

In cyberspace since 2015.

Global trade is impossible without transportation, and every country relies on maritime trade to sell what it has and buy what it needs. Since there is more transportation on the water than onshore, maritime transport is dependent on trade. That's why this episode is all about trade.

Cecilia Malmstrom, Former EU Commissioner for Trade and now a non-resident senior fellow at PIIE (Peterson Institute for International Economics), is the interviewee in episode 181. 

We discuss shipping from a global trade perspective. Cecilia has been representing the EU in various trade negotiations. She knows everything there is to know about trade agreements, politics and how to take many different viewpoints into account when negotiating.  

Cecilia Malmstrom hosts a monthly webinar on trade, Trade Winds. You are welcome to sign up here.
