Innovation in Logistics
Innovation in Logistics
Logistics is an integral part of both private and professional life. While in the private life we try to use all available means and innovations to improve our lives and with it also our life logistics. However, we often lag behind in professional life and by innovations we often mean a new graph or another macro in Excel. But is it all? What can current developments and research offer? What about applied solutions and isn´t the most important innovation change of the point of view and scope of logistics at all?
In the next two days, we should clearly answer all these questions and not just that. The participants will be given tools not limited by the company´s investment possibilities, but only by the ability to perceive logistics differently, more comprehensively, as one of the main tools where its effective use will be a good and cost-effective helper instead of an expensive and wasteful master.
