German Award for Supply Chain Management Ceremony

Proven concepts continue to find the right setting at BVL Supply Chain CX: On the evening of the first CX day, the logistics world looks to Berlin: The presentation of the German Award for Supply Chain-Management 2025 is undoubtedly one of the highlights, moderated again this year by BVL board member Christina Thurner, as it was in 2024. 
Under its new chairman Christian Mohr, the independent and expert jury will select three finalists and the winner. The prestigious award honors unique innovative solutions in the field of logistics. Look forward to an exciting award ceremony where outstanding achievements and future-oriented projects in supply chains will be honored and celebrated. With a Congress ticket, you can be there live when this year's winner is announced.

Good to know: as part of a “shoulder glance,” the winning project will be presented at a separate event after the BVL Supply Chain CX on site at the winner's premises. In addition, on the second day of the CX, the winner will have the opportunity to present their winning project in a separate session on the Center Stage of the Expo Area.
