Trade Lab is a series of training workshops held several times a year focused on physical commodity trading, shipping, trade finance and all related domains.

Our trading program offers courses that teach general and/or specific commodity trading skills in a “learning by doing” class format. We believe that learning about commodities is more efficient through simulations and practical cases in which each attendant has opportunities to practice trading fundamentals directly.

Our trade lab offers both standard training workshops, targeted at people working in bank, logistic, finance, international transportation or willing to learn more about the world of trading. This includes professionals without trading experience, young graduates who would like to develop or up-date their trading skills.

A unique feature of our Trade Lab courses is that it is taught by a team of practicing speakers and other professionals who are selected not only for their expertise reputation and accomplishment, but also to reflect the diversity of the trading profession. We encourage our speakers to demonstrate practice situations, share experiences and perspectives and serve as reference for attendant questions.
