Connecting the dots: Why Transporeon? Why Now? What's Next?

Carriers literally keep things moving. Without carriers, goods would remain on assembly lines or stuck in sheds rather than delivered to consumers. Carriers are the key to transforming transportation and getting the economy back on track. At Transporeon we recognise this and want to help you bring transportation in sync with the world.

Digitalisation: The keys to a successful digital transformation

Gain valuable insights on how to identify disruptive trends, leverage new technologies and business models and develop a culture of innovation to stay competitive and thrive in today's dynamic business environment.
Furthermore, learn how to play both sides (load taker and load giver) of the industry and how to switch from one role to another.

Beyond The Limits: Forwarders and carriers - a new way of cooperating

The challenging part for an LSP/forwarder is to keep their daily operations running smoothly while  managing capacity and providing great customer service. On the other side, carriers spend most of their time finding the right shipments to operate more profitably. Make this matchmaking process less manual and more automated with Transporeon Freight Matching.

Jaroslaw Kolasiewicz, International FTL Product Director, Rohlig Suus

Mastering Fleet Optimisation: Make the most of out of your assets

Assets are vital in any industry, never more so than in transportation where the truck is a make-or-break service for the enterprise. This cherished asset needs TLC if it is to keep carrying those loads safely and reliably. From maintenance to monitoring to managing, keep those trucks on the move and arriving in the right place at the right time.

15:00

Digitalisation – Unleashing the Power of the Carrier Network​

One of the most urgent concerns in our industry is how to achieve sustainable and environmentally friendly practices. Explore the latest trends and innovations in sustainable transportation, hear best-practices in creating a greener future for the transportation industry and discuss strategies for making sustainable activities a top priority in carrier operations. Join us for an engaging conversation and learn how we can work together to create a more sustainable and prosperous future for all.
