Transportation & Logistics 2030: on December 3rd 2009 PWC will present its findings in Breda. /23 Nov 2009/

A glimpse into the transportation and logistics future.

Successful management in today's economic climate requires quick and determined decision-making in order to adapt to changing market conditions rapidly. At the same time, business leaders must remain aware of the long-term prospects in their industries and markets. 

“Transportation & Logistics 2030” is a series of Delphi studies on the future of the industry. At the symposium in Breda, PWC/PricewaterhouseCoopers will be presenting the findings of their first publication, “Dealing with the scarcity of energy resources and its impact on the design of future supply chains”. Get to know the views of experts from 20 countries, who participated in the Delphi survey. 

In addition, the symposium will include presentations and a panel discussion with experts from the industry who will share their views of the design of future supply chains and the issue of transport-related energy consumption and emissions. Meet your peers and enter into a dialogue on the imperatives for you as a business leader in supply chain management and logistics.

Christian Leysen, Executive Chairman of Ahlers and one of the keynote speakers will elaborate on "Shaping supply chains of the future - Part I".
