Parcel+Post Expo 2023 set to be “best-ever”
This year’s Parcel+Post Expo is set to attract thousands of trade visitors seeking valuable insights, new business opportunities and an in-depth look at innovative new technologies to Amsterdam later this month.
Taking place from October 24 – 26 at RAI Amsterdam, the event will feature two conferences, a large-scale exhibition with more than 220 exhibitors, and plenty of networking opportunities. CEP-Research is once again a media partner and will be reporting from the event.
2-day UPU conference
This year, there will be a special extended edition of the UPU World Leaders Forum, taking place on October 24 & 25, with the theme ‘Across borders and beyond limits: Blueprints for lasting innovation’.
The UPU World Leaders Forum will feature a line-up of CEOs from national postal operators and the wider postal sector coming together to define and align their common business goals across four dimensions: logistics and cross-border e-commerce, diversification strategies, trust and security, and sustainability. Experts will gather to discuss how to emulate these successful models and advance interconnection between developing and developed national postal operators and private sector players, via the Universal Postal Union’s global ecosystem.
Global postal network
According to event organiser UKi Media & Events, national postal operators have the expansive network required to deliver a wide variety of services to people, wherever they are – a process that has afforded posts an extremely valuable asset: the trust of its customers. Via the UPU and its 192 member countries, they have access to knowledge, services and solutions to deliver across a single global postal network.
In particular, while posts maintain their established role and mandate as universal service providers, they have readily embraced the need to look to the future and are rapidly expanding their prospects through innovation. Many have developed forward-looking strategies to take their services to the next level.
Public-private partnerships
In parallel, private sector players are also forging ahead to propose unique and agile solutions. Many of these companies can provide next-level technologies that could revolutionize the postal business and are searching for trusted partners to expand their footprint.
“By working together, national postal operators and the private sector can create value for their customers and develop cutting-edge services that meet and anticipate their needs. Integration and interconnection between national postal operators and those across the wider postal sector have become essential to ensuring the success of the postal ecosystem.”
Innovation Forum
Taking place in parallel is the free-to-attend Parcel+Post Expo Innovation Forum, which will feature 50+ presentations from exhibitors showcasing the latest technologies and solutions within the industry.
