Air Cargo World introduces Elevate 2016 conference in Miami

Big data, analytics, digitization and the rise of global e-commerce are changing the face of airfreight logistics forever. To help propel the airfreight industry forward, Air Cargo World is proud to announce the launch of Elevate 2016, the air cargo industry’s first event focused on innovation.

Elevate 2016 will take place on October 10 at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel in Miami, in conjunction with the Cargo Facts Symposium, sponsored by sister publication, Cargo Facts. With a unique blend of fireside chats, presentations, technology demos and interactive group sessions, Elevate 2016 is designed to enlighten and inspire the logistics community’s leading decision-makers.

FTK growth has not met expectations this year, which has pushed the global air cargo industry to pursue new technologies and a culture of digital innovation. Elevate 2016 is the new forum that will explore that tech transformation, guiding attendees toward a new, more-efficient airfreight business.

Elevate 2016 will gather air carriers, forwarders, shippers, startup founders, airport officials and vendors to discuss the critical strategies and technology opportunities for today’s airfreight operations. In seven separate sessions, Elevate will tackle innovation opportunities, such as advanced route development strategies, methods for leveraging deep-data analysis, and fresh ideas culled from the startup scene.

Attendees will draw from professionals with expertise in strategic development, logistics strategy and innovation, IT, product development, business development, innovation strategy and other facets of airfreight innovation.
