I Logistop Scientific-Technological Congress

The conference where logistics becomes strategy

Logistics has evolved beyond its traditional operational role to become a critical strategic driver of competitiveness, sustainability, and innovation. In response to this transformation, the 1st LOGISTOP Scientific and Technological Congress in Valencia was established as a meeting point for business leaders, researchers, technology experts, and public institutions committed to shaping the future of the sector. It is a space for dialogue, collaboration, and forward thinking, dedicated to anticipating the changes that are redefining logistics worldwide.

Organized by LOGISTOP, the Spanish Technology Platform for Innovation in Logistics, Transport and Mobility, this two-day event will unite businesses, startups, universities, and technology centres to accelerate the transformation of ideas into applied solutions, projects, and measurable value for the logistics ecosystem.

Thematic axes

The logistics sector faces a twofold challenge: advancing sustainability and building greater resilience in an era of constant change and uncertainty. These two priorities will be at the heart of the discussions and activities of our Congress.

Topic 1 Sustainability and energy transition in logistics
Topic 1

Transform logistics towards an efficient and sustainable model that reduces the environmental and energy impact of the supply chain, adapting it to current regulations through new technologies and operational processes.

Topic 2 Logistical, emergency and critical
infrastructure resilience
Topic 2

Strengthen the capacity of logistics to anticipate, manage and recover from crises and disruptions. It focuses on operational continuity, security, and protection of critical infrastructures through monitoring technologies and dual-use civil-military solutions in complex environments.

Topic 3 Digitalisation, interoperability and
advanced traceability
Topic 3

Drive digital transformation for more connected, smarter and more efficient logistics. It focuses on data integration, automation, end-to-end traceability, and advanced analytics to improve decision-making and coordination between actors.

Topic 4 Port, intermodal logistics and smart corridors
Topic 4

Optimise logistics flows in port and multimodal environments, improving connectivity between nodes and infrastructures. It focuses on operational efficiency, digitalization, modal synchronization and traceability within complex supply chains with high territorial impact.

Topic 5 Urban, last-mile and omnichannel logistics
Topic 5

Focused on the challenges of urban distribution, the last mile, reverse logistics and omnichannel. It addresses delivery solutions, local regulation, network optimization and integration of physical and digital channels in highly complex environments.

Congress venue

City of Valencia

Valencia is emerging as the ideal host city for the LOGISTOP Congress, thanks to its strategic role as the Mediterranean’s leading logistics and intermodal hub. Anchored by the Port of Valencia—one of Europe’s key gateways for global trade and a frontrunner in the transition towards greener and more sustainable infrastructure—the city offers a unique combination of international connectivity, technological innovation, and forward-looking vision.

Beyond its logistical strengths, Valencia has built a thriving ecosystem where industry, research, and innovation converge, supported by a strong commitment to sustainability, urban transformation, and decarbonisation. Its excellent accessibility, proven track record in hosting international events, and dynamic network of businesses, startups, universities, and technology centres create the ideal environment for meaningful dialogue on the future of logistics.

Valencia provides the perfect setting to connect talent, foster collaboration, accelerate digitalisation, and address the challenges and opportunities shaping the next generation of logistics and supply chains.
