Nordics Macro, Industry and Cities Outlook: How will the economy heal from Covid-19?
The Nordic economies outperformed most of Europe across the course of 2020 and are set to recover faster than the wider region, supported by resilient industrial activity whilst services lag. The second wave of infections will drag on near-term activity, but we expect growth to accelerate firmly from Q2 as widespread vaccine deployment allows governments to ease restrictions, paving the way for a normalisation in activity across different sectors of the economy and the Nordic cities.
We will be repeating the same webinar to cater for the difference in time zones between APAC, EMEA and the Americas:
- APAC – Friday 23rd April | 10:00 HKT
- EMEA – Friday 23rd April | 10:00 BST
- Americas – Friday 23rd April | 16:00 EDT

Why the cruise sector will rebound faster than after the Great Recession
The cruise sector was hit following the Great Recession by continued increases in capacity while travel demand slowed sharply – deep discounting was required at that time to spur demand. We are now seeing an apparent parallel trend as new cruise capacity spiked in 2022, despite travel remaining well below pre-pandemic norms in most destinations. In this webinar we describe the amount of additional new capacity that will be launched in coming years as well as demand expectations and why we believe sector recovery and cruise pricing will differ in this current cycle.
