UKWA conference to focus on digitalisation and automation

7-8 March 2023 The United Kingdom Warehousing Association's National Conference 2023 will be focusing on digitalisation and automation in warehousing and why they are becoming increasingly important as market pressures rise.

Delegates will hear about the latest innovations and the ways in which technology can speed up processes and improve operational workflows.

The conference, which takes place at Crowne Plaza, Stratford-upon-Avon on March 7-8, also provides an opportunity to network with peers and colleagues over two days of presentations and take part in interactive panel discussions.

Special guest and after dinner speaker will be the outspoken former MP Edwina Currie – The Telegraph columnist and former Strictly Come Dancing contestant was one of the most influential women in politics during the 80s and 90s.

This year’s (2022) UKWA National Conference was deemed a great success. Commenting on the event Nancy Laing, Head of Storage & Distribution, British Airways Engineering, said: “UKWA National Conference was very informative, with a good standard of contributions – the discussion panels were useful, and I was able to reach out to other sector providers to learn and exchange experiences – it was a really positive event!”

Stuart Coulton, UK&I Marketing Manager, Omron Electronics said: “The UKWA Conference has been really great, it’s helped us in understanding the various challenges the industry is facing… and the plethora of different solutions across the sector.”

Danielle Wykes, Director, Logistics Solutions Group, added: “Coming to UKWA Conference is fantastic, we get up to date on what’s available, and it’s interesting for us to hear at first-hand what our suppliers and clients are experiencing too, so that when we match them with solutions, we’ve got other ideas as to what’s out there.”

Delegate places include overnight accommodation if required, refreshments throughout the event and a drinks reception followed by a Conference Dinner on the evening of Tuesday 7 March.
