The Must-Attend IWLA Event of May in Orlando
For years, the International Warehouse Logistics Association (IWLA) has brought together the minds that move the world’s goods. The annual event is where innovation takes shape, partnerships solidify, and the future of our industry is charted. This year’s gathering in Orlando, FL, from April 21-23, is no exception, and Prism Logistics is proud to be at the heart of it.
IWLA 2024: A Sneak Peek
With over 500 logistics professionals descending on Orlando, the 2024 IWLA Convention & Expo is the place to be. Expect cutting-edge insights, game-changing technologies, and the kind of networking that builds businesses. Golf, charity events, and powerful keynote speakers round out an experience that’s truly tailored to our industry.
Navy SEAL Keynote: A Leadership Lesson for Logistics
IWLA understands the unique challenges of third-party warehouse operators. That’s why their choice of keynote speaker is a masterstroke. Mike Sarraille, a decorated former Navy SEAL and successful business leader, embodies the decisiveness and resilience our industry demands. His insights are sure to inspire us as we navigate the complexities of modern logistics.
Prism Logistics: A Voice at the Table
