7 day countdown until the 14th Cool Logistics Global takes place in Barcelona
“Resilience, Sustainability, Connectivity, Innovation”
Cool Logistics Global Conference & Exhibition, 20-22 September, WTC, Barcelona
A Keynote presentation by the President of the Port of Barcelona will officially open the Cool Logistics Global Conference this month, and we are doubly delighted to announce two outstanding additions to the speaker line-up.
Confirmed last week is Mitchell Brooke who is the Logistics Development & Special Export Program Manager for the Citrus Growers Association of Southern Africa, with Spain and South Africa being the two largest exporters of citrus in the world and as the logistics manager, we are very excited to hear Mitchell’s perspective.
Our second confirmation is Vakis Rigas, VP of Marketing and Head of Sustainability at Shypple – who are a digital freight forwarder based in the Netherlands with a big focus on perishables and sustainability – we are all looking forward to hearing from Vakis.

P.S. Just confirmed too is a wonderful cerebral and sensory experience, after the last panel discussion on Day 2: Crossing the (Digital) Divide, where participants are invited to a tasting of Catalonian wines served by Avgvstvs Forvm, a Tarragona-based 5th generation family wine maker.
