Logiconomi Forum 2025
Enabling sustainable performance in logistics: bringing expert advice
This year’s Logiconomi conference brought together over 500 executive logistics leaders from across Europe. The event is always a vibrant hub of knowledge sharing, innovation and collaboration. This time, the spotlight was on cutting-edge technologies driving the next generation of logistics operations, from smarter automation to AI-powered solutions. Responding to what matters most to our customers, i.e. energy, automation, artificial intelligence and sustainability, this year’s theme, Enabling Sustainable Performance, captured the dual challenge of achieving sustainability targets while keeping operations efficient and reliable. Logiconomi 2025 also marked the launch of an exciting new programme from Toyota Material Handling Europe aimed at tackling everyday intralogistics challenges: Logiconomi Connections. By connecting industry players with innovative solution providers, we’re helping shape a smarter, more resilient logistics ecosystem.
