Networking

Personal exchange remains a prerequisite for cooperation, teamwork and the success of supply chains. This is why networking is a top priority at BVL Supply Chain CX. In addition to the opportunity to chat at the bar or during the breaks, the program offers numerous networking opportunities in various formats.

On the first two days of the event, moderated connect tables will allow participants to exchange ideas in small groups on pre-defined topics. The Networking & Casino Night exclusively for congress participants will take place after the presentation of the German Logistics Award on Wednesday evening and is the perfect opportunity to make contacts in a relaxed atmosphere. At the CX party on the Expo area on Thursday evening, everyone will come together to exchange ideas and, above all, to celebrate - including a karaoke session.

If you would like to meet up with other participants on site, you can use the BVL app's matchmaking function.
