1st Interdisciplinary Conference on Production, Logistics and Traffic

The conference, which is under the patronage of Hessian Prime Minister Volker Bouffier, focuses on seamless integration of the disciplines production, logistics, and traffic by outlining future interdisciplinary challenges and developing possible solutions.

Megatrends like increasing volatility, digitalisation, globalisation and urbanisation bring up new challenges for production, logistics and traffic. While producing companies increasingly benefit from complex global value networks, at the same time transport infrastructure reaches its limits due to rising freight transport. As a consequence transport and mobility is constrained and traffic becomes a limiting factor in production. Therefore, public authorities that want to tackle these effects have to consider developments in production and logistics.
