[vc_row][vc_column][column_text]On 8 and 9 November 2023, ICT&Logistics will take place at Royal Jaarbeurs. This trade fair is the meeting place for technological innovation within the logistics sector. The sector faces the challenge of getting the right goods to the right place at the right time. But as an organisation, how do you keep a grip on these logistics operations, now and in the future? This question is central during ICT&Logistics. For two days, the trade fair offers inspiration and information around the theme 'Fit for the Future'. Meanwhile, exhibitors have already signed up, including frontrunners such as Slimstock, Actemium, Zetes, Zebra and Indicium.

Theme: Fit for the Future
Under the theme ‘Fit for the Future’, the ICT&Logistics trade fair provides answers to the challenges of today and tomorrow. Exhibitors will demonstrate how we can get more work done with fewer people, how we can adapt more quickly by making supply chains transparent, and how we can reduce the carbon footprint of our operations. In other words: ICT&Logistiek shows you how to make your operations ‘fit for the future’. Corien den Ouden, exhibition manager: “The transport and logistics sectors face the same challenge: getting the right goods to the right place at the right time. That is more difficult than ever before. Customers want ever greater convenience and speed, whilst the availability of goods can no longer be taken for granted. The world is calling for climate-neutral operations, but there are hardly any people left to make this happen. That is why, at ICT&Logistics, we will be taking a closer look at how the sector can prepare for the future.”

Towards data-driven logistics through digitalisation and automation
Much of the focus in the ICT & Logistics sector is on digitalisation and automation. Every day, thousands of people in the logistics sector are engaged in administrative or physical tasks that are time-consuming and prone to errors. By digitising and automating these processes, companies can get more work done with fewer staff, speed up their logistics processes and, at the same time, improve their service provision. And perhaps the most important benefit: digitisation and automation lay the foundation for data-driven logistics and better decision-making.[/column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
