Future shape of logistics under focus in virtual event

Critical logistics topics including zero-emission and self-driving vehicles, 5G and smart cities are to be spotlighted in a new virtual conference and exhibition.

The event will cover topics including data, vehicles, fuels, Brexit, communities and business strategies

The event, running on 13 November 2020, is free to attend and being run by Logistics UK (formerly the FTA) ahead of the main ITT Hub event and conference next year.

Leading voices from across the logistics and transport sectors will explore the forces set to shape the industry of tomorrow, covering topics as wide-ranging as data, vehicles, fuels, Brexit, communities and business strategies.

A virtual exhibition will showcase latest products and provide opportunities for one-to-one networking with other delegates, sponsors and exhibitors.

David Wells, chief executive of Logistics UK, said: “The COVID-19 pandemic has not slowed the tide of technology. Self-driving trucks, zero-emission vehicles, smart cities, and drone technology are all evolving fast and logistics professionals must be prepared to adapt to this new landscape. And, with the uncertainties of the UK’s future trading relationship with the EU – along with the long-term implications of COVID-19 – this important event will help logistics businesses understand what lies in store for logistics in the coming months and years.”
