On the 28th and 29th of November 2012 all the senior logistics, supply chain, and transportation professionals will have an opportunity to take part in the 2nd annual TRANSLOG Connect Congress – a business summit, that after a success of its first edition in 2011 became a leading logistics event in CEE.
TRANSLOG Connect offers a perfect setting for all delegates to gain valuable knowledge about the most effective cost optimizing processes, finding new customers, partners, and suppliers. It also gives a chance to learn about innovations and solutions that are the future for your industry.
Environment
TRANSLOG Connect runs in the heart of CEE – Budapest, in the Corinthia Grand Hotel Royal. The venue is located in the centre of the city, offering the convenience of an exhibition centre with the comfort and beauty of a five-star hotel.
People
TRANSLOG provides a great opportunity to meet with top level executives from mid and big size companies from CEE. Operating on an invitation basis guarantees the highest level of delegation. Additionally, each solution provider is selected based on requirements and interests provided by attending industry professionals prior to the event. Last year delegates emphasized that the event is perfectly balanced between attending presentations and panel discussions, conducting pre-scheduled business meetings, and unconstrained networking through a number of activities such as the cocktail reception, seated buffet lunch or plant excursions.
Technology
The TEG Meeting Scheduler—a unique online software—underpins the success of TRANSLOG Connect. It is an interactive website where every participant receives access a few weeks prior to the event. It allows the user to take full advantage of the congress by customizing their personal agenda. The Meeting Scheduler gives the control over which presentation to attend who to meet with. It is also intuitive and user friendly, being constantly developed based on the users’ feedback. The Meeting Scheduler is claimed to be the number one event technology by both vendors and delegates on a global basis.
Business Meetings
Pre-scheduled one-to-one business meetings are the core of the congress. The Meeting Scheduler site allows all delegates and vendors attending to conduct pre-scheduled and mutually agreed upon, one-to-one business meetings that are smoothly integrated into their agenda. The arranged meetings have no time limit and the high level of delegation ensures their relevancy.
Knowledge & Experience
The organiser TEG is working closely with the Programme Advisory Committee, a team consisting of well-known and recognized logistics experts, such as Dr. Johann Seif, Vice President International Planning and Logistics from Henkel or Péter Boncsér, Supply Chain Director from Auchan. Their support translates into a high quality conference programme that is led by the prominent speakers. The programme is presented in the diversified form of customer case studies, best practice presentations, interactive workshops and plant excursions. In 2011 participants had the possibility to visit the Audi plant or the Dreher Brewery owned by the SabMiller Group. TRANSLOG Connect 2012 will give an opportunity to visit the Coca Cola plant in Dunaharaszti.
Value
TRANSLOG Connect provides a huge value to all participants. Dynamic and time-efficient, it gives a chance for benchmarking and networking in a highly exclusive environment. Being supported by sponsors and vendors like Raben, CH Robinson or DB Schenker, and numerous media and associations partners, TRANSLOG has grown into the leading logistics event in the CEE region with unquestionable potential for becoming the number one event for entire Europe in the following years.
