27 May 2026, 13:30-15:00 CEST

AI-fuelled tech is driving a visible shift in transportation management – so what’s changed, where are we headed and how can you keep up?

Join ArcelorMittal Steel, Bekaert, Fercam, Hegelmann Express GmbH and S2Data for a live roundtable led by top industry analyst, Adrian Gonzalez and featuring Trimble expert, Bernhard Schmaldienst. From firsthand experiences with AI adoption in transportation management to the strategies proven to power transformation, tune in for front-row access to honest discussion – supported by the findings revealed in the Transportation Pulse Report 2026.

Packed with relevant insights for shippers, carriers and LSPs, this session offers the chance to refresh your perspective on how organizations are leveraging hybrid technology to empower their teams and stay ahead – no matter what stage of AI adoption you’re currently in.

KEY TOPICS WE'LL COVER

Explore what’s real, what’s emerging and how to stay ahead.

AI is here to stay.

Getting comfortable with the change is not an option as AI adoption becomes a criteria that sets apart the businesses leading their industries, and those falling behind.

 

AI is not a threat to headcount – it empowers teams to do more.

Winning organisations will leverage hybrid workforces to collaborate towards company goals, rather than replace human talent with AI.

 

AI adoption is a journey with obstacles along the way – getting strategic is a must.

Fundamentals like digitization, data quality and network connections must be in place in order for AI to have a multiplier effect in logistics, transportation and supply chain management.

 

AI is transforming transportation management from reactive execution to predictive, real-time decision-making.

Organisations can now anticipate and respond to challenges faster than ever, moving beyond traditional approaches.

 

AI technology is still emerging – trust and ethics must come first.

This is change management, with meaning. Now’s the time for organizations to assess trusted and established solutions providers proven to prioritise ethical AI solution development– reliability is key for improving work quality and conditions.

 

AI is more than agents.

A myriad of AI tools based on different AI models (LLM, automation) are already proven to deliver value. It’s a good time to surface the use cases for AI-powered visibility ETAs, spot buying and freight rate predictions.
