The Future of Logistics is at Manifest

The world was transformed in 2020, and one industry rose to the challenge of meeting the world’s needs - logistics. Never has there been such a test for logistics, and never has there been shown the need for innovation and digitization in logistics. With the need for innovation at the forefront, never has the time been better for an event that brings together the global leaders in logistics technology. Manifest announces its official launch for January 2022 in Las Vegas.

Taking place January 25 - 27, 2022, at the Paris Resort in Las Vegas, Manifest highlights the tech-driven transformation of logistics and supply chain operations taking place across the globe.

Innovators and investors will gather to join BCOs / Shippers in exploring the efficiency and profit gain opportunities available through new technology advancements.

“I am thrilled to be taking part in this global, forward-looking event with leaders and experts in the logistics and supply chain industry. The pandemic’s impact on global mobility has been felt at all points in the supply chain, and I look forward to dissecting both the challenges and opportunities for innovation that have arisen in its wake – from on-demand drone deliveries to smart warehouse management… and beyond,” said Yariv Bash, CEO and Co-Founder of Flytrex who will be one of the featured speakers at Manifest.
