Logistics Manager’s innovative Industrial & Logistics Property Conference will show industrial and logistics property occupiers how to leverage their properties to help with their business, operational, environmental, social and governance strategies.
Every business – including those in the distribution and logistics sectors – can benefit from matching its property strategy to its business goals. It is becoming increasingly important to create properties that are productive, well-located, good places to work in, sustainable and that work in harmony with the wider stakeholder communities.
The industrial and logistics property sector is the fastest growing sector in commercial property, offering a huge untapped opportunity. Those who attend the conference will discover the latest industrial and logistics property trends and insights.
On top of hearing from industry-leading experts, there will also be opportunity for delegates to expand their business network during dedicated networking breaks.
