About the conference
TAL (Trends in Automotive Logistics) is a conference that brings together inspiring speakers from business and academia so they can share their approaches and opinions towards the latest trends in logistics, manufacturing and integration and the use of new digitalisation technologies, methods and tools. We are preparing the 24th year of the conference in 2025.
#TAL2025: Digital. Future-Proof?
Uncertainty and changeability have become constants in the automotive industry’s evolution today. Is its further fate written in the stars? Don’t try to read the skies. Gaze straight at the future and its challenges. Including those you don’t expect.
What role will digitalisation play in the dynamics of this field’s rapid development? How can you find your bearings among new technologies, automation, AI and more and choose the right tools to stay resilient? What systems and abilities can you build up in your digital factory and its teams?
Don’t look for answers in theory; you’ll find them in real-world systems running at companies around the world. Learn from experts who have implemented tomorrow’s solutions and are reaping their benefits.
These are the sort of specialists you’ll meet at the Trends in Automotive Logistics 2025 conference. Experts from both industry and academia will be coming to TAL 2025 to share their perspectives. As every year, you can look forward to inspiring presentations, real-world case studies and discussions with colleagues in your field.
