MEGATRANS 2024 is your chance to explore the future of logistics. Featuring top industry experts, groundbreaking technologies, and invaluable networking opportunities, this event is a must-attend.
MEGATRANS, Australia’s largest exhibition and conference for supply chain and logistics is set to take place in Melbourne on 18-19 September 2024 at the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre.
“We noticed that while many events focused on individual stages of the supply chain, there was no comprehensive event covering the entire logistics process from manufacturing to end consumer,” says Lauren Chartres, Show Director.
“Our goal was to create a forum for discussing improvements across the whole supply chain.”
Attendees can expect a showcase of cutting-edge technologies, insightful conferences, ample networking opportunities and discussions with many industry leaders.
Issues covered include workplace diversity, focusing on the importance of creating a workforce that reflects broader societal demographics. Ethical Supply Chain, addressing how traceability can ensure sustainability by promoting ethical practices and transparent supplier relationships and Real Estate Planning, which will be explored as essential for supporting the logistics industry’s growth.
While speaking with MHD, JLL’s Richard Phillips mentioned key factors behind the company’s decision to participate in the event.
“JLL decided to get the senior executives into customer- facing forums this year from a corporate marketing perspective,” says Richard.
“This will be the third or fourth forum I will have been invited to and lead discussions on, which varies across property ESG decisions, vacancy decisions, changing phases of the property marketplace, and a disparate number of things that I will talk about.”
“In terms of the conference, we aim to provide insights into how companies can enhance their operations, supported by case studies showcasing proven success. This is designed to be educational, not a sales pitch,” says Lauren.
The event is supported by sponsors, including the Platinum Sponsor – Loscam; Event Sponsors – Transvirtual and Geotab; and Prime Creative’s Association Partners – ICHCA, RWTA, SCLAA, TCA and VTA.
“Our decision to exhibit at Megatrans 2024 reflects Geotab’s commitment to leading telematics innovation and fleet management solutions,” says David Brown, Geotab’s Associate Vice President, APAC.
“The event offers a prime platform to showcase our cutting- edge technologies, engage with industry leaders, and highlight how our solutions enhance fleet efficiency, safety, and sustainability.”
SUSTAINABLE FUTURE
This event will address the industry’s key priorities such as future fleets, promoting zero-carbon warehouse solutions, enhancing traceability in supply chains, and advancing cold chain logistics.
Luke Olsen – Managing Director – APAC, talked about his company’s previous experience in the event.
“We exhibited at Megatrans in 2018 and 2022,
achieving great success by connecting with supply chain professionals eager to innovate,” he said. “This year’s theme, “sustainability,” aligns perfectly with the priorities of many of our 400+ customers across Australia, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, and France.”
He says the company contributes to a sustainable future by providing fleet operators with advanced tools to monitor, manage, and maintain their operations efficiently. Its integrated ecosystem improves fuel efficiency, reduces emissions, and optimises resource utilisation through better route planning, digitisation, and driver behaviour improvements.
