Don't miss your chance to quiz the experts! This is a unique opportunity to question the heads of Wincanton, TDG, DHL Supply Chain, CEVA, Kuehne + Nagel and Norbert Dentressangle. Discover how to beat the recession.

Find out how to emerge from the recession revitalised, from the experts that know.

Assuming the worst of the recession is over, where do we go from here? How do we embrace the "new world", stop ourselves falling back into our old ways, making the same mistakes and finding ourselves back here in the future?

The prestigious CILT Logistics Conference focuses on strategies for success in the new economic environment.  Delegates will hear from many leading industry figures on how they're shaping up for the new challenges - including the bosses of DHL Supply Chain, TDG, Kuehne + Nagel, Norbert Dentressangle Wincanton and CEVA.

CILT Chief Executive Steve Agg says: ‘It's in the immediate post-recession growth period that many companies actually fail. Learning from industry thought leaders on how they plan to react to growing markets will be invaluable for professionals in our industry.'

Delegates will hear from panellists:

Confirmed Speakers include:

  • Jane Burkitt, Supply Planning Director, Pepsico International UK,
  • Ian Brinkley, Knowledge Economy Programme Director, The Work Foundation - 'Skills and the 2020 Knowledge Economy'
  • Nick Gazzard MILT, Leader CILT Sustainable Transport Strategy Group - 'New ways to beat the barriers to managing costs & sustainability in shared systems'
  • Dave Lowther FCILT, Operations Services Director, Screwfix Direct - 'Controlling the cost of fulfillment in a recession whilst maintaining high service levels in a multi channel environment'
  • John Parkes, Managing Director, IDS Logistics (UK) Ltd - 'Implementing Value Chain Logistics'
