Neutral Air Partner
Successful 6th OPENAP AGM
Another Year of Excellence
The 6th Neutral Air Partner Annual General Meeting and OPENAP Asia was a stellar event, where next-generation leaders connected with innovators around the globe and solution-minded discussions and face-to-face interactions flourished, setting higher standards of sophistication for the air cargo logistics community.
As with every OPENAP event, NAP always aim to taking members and guests to a premium networking experience, by providing a next-level platform for the exchange of ideas, views, and solutions for the air cargo logistics industry issues.
After almost 3 years of Covid and travel and quarantine restrictions in several parts of the globe, the world is restarting, conferences and events are now happening, and we were delighted to return to Asia this past September to meet all our friends and partners at the wonderful Ritz- Carlton in Bali, Indonesia’s magical island. As we are confident you found out for yourselves, this was the perfect place to network with good friends and esteemed members of the air cargo logistics community.
In addition to our general agenda with insightful presentations, special panels, and Face 2 face meetings, we organized some very exciting social activities, for your “business and pleasure”!
During the 6th OPENAP we brought together a passionate group of more than 200 air cargo experts from around the world, to exchange ideas, views, and solutions to the air cargo logistics industry’s issues. The speakers’ quality, the catching panel discussions, the fruitful face-to-face meetings, the productive networking and warm connections, the dedicated team, the fun atmosphere, and the enthusiastic feedback from everyone, all made OPENAP22 a first-class event.
A sincere thank you to our attendees, speakers, and partners who made this excellent event possible, and because as they say “it takes a village to raise a child”, we want to express our special appreciation to our sponsors for supporting OPENAP.

Panel discussions
The air cargo industry has positioned itself as one of the fastest and safest freight transport options, even though not totally recovered post-covid with China’s zero-covid policy still having a big impact on the manufacturing industry and export activities from china.
E-commerce will be one of the major future drivers of success in the freight industry. Digitization is vital for businesses that want to stay ahead of their competition, and Innovation will play a key role in reducing congestion at customs, improving shipment traceability, and optimizing delivery times.
Sustainability plays an increasingly important role in measuring companies’ corporate social responsibility and accountability on their environmental impact.

NAP Farewell Cocktail
On the last day of OPENAP, the NAP Farewell Cocktail at Karma Kandara beach had everyone put aside their business agendas and formal dressing, and party. An unforgettable send -off, partying in swimsuit attire, watching one of the best sunsets ever, enjoying the fantastic live music band, the delicious BBQ on the beach and the fun atmosphere. Fortunately, we didn’t have to take the stairs back up!
