The panel discussion on the first day of the congress was also held under the motto "Think new - live digital". Moderated by Roland Tichy, Chairman of the Ludwig Erhard Foundation, leading figures from industry and logistics services discussed the challenges and opportunities of digital transformation in logistics and supply chain management. Which new technologies should be used? What skills do employees need and how can they be taught? Where is there a risk of disruption? The panel included Peter Gerber (Lufthansa Cargo), Dr. Henry Puhl (Still), Boris Winkelmann (DPD) and Dr. Thorsten Winkelmann (Arvato SCM).
