This landmark edition will begin in Albi, where the pre-conference on June 5–6 will bring together PhD students, researchers, and industry professionals for interactive training sessions, including the “My Thesis in 180 Seconds” challenge, and immersive learning experiences using cutting-edge Virtual Reality games. The event will then move to Bordeaux from June 8–10 for the main conference, themed “Supply Chain and Logistics Intelligence in the Era of the Physical Internet: Bridging High-Tech and Low-Tech Solutions.” 

Participants will enjoy a vibrant program featuring scientific and industrial sessions, inspiring keynotes, dynamic roundtables, exhibitions, company visits, and collaborative workshops designed to foster innovation and shape the future of logistics and supply chain networks.

And, because logistics is global, participants will be from all over the world including researchers, industrial and international institution members, local authorities and standardization committees.
