Coronavirus in the logistics
July date canceled: Material Flow Congress will not take place
The message as follows: "Following the current decisions by the federal government, federal states and local authorities, the VDI Wissensforum has decided to stop planning the event. This decision was not easy for us, especially since we already had to postpone the original date of the MFK in March 2020 due to the outbreak of Covid-19. For us as organizers, the safety and well-being of all guests, employees and participants is of course always our top priority. We very much regret that the MFK cannot take place as planned under the current circumstances and hope to see you at one of our upcoming events."
According to reports, the Material Flow Congress will no longer take place in 2020, but will return as a regular event in 2021.
