AIR CARG O WEEK


THE AMERICAS


“Attendees can expect a high-impact conference programme covering trends such as digital transformation, sustainability, AI in logistics, regulatory shifts and supply chain resilience.”


ACW: What kind of exposure can exhibitors expect in terms of audience reach and media coverage? Schönberger: Exhibitors benefit from international visibility through Messe München’s global network, media partnerships, and targeted outreach across the Americas. Coverage spans trade media, digital platforms, and social channels, with exhibitors featured in show directories, newsletters, and pre-show promotional campaigns.


ACW: What industries and regions do most buyers and decision-makers represent? Schönberger: The buyer audience is primarily composed of professionals from logistics, aerospace, retail, pharma, heavy industry and manufacturing, with strong representation from North America, Latin America and the Caribbean. The Miami location ensures a dynamic mix of U.S. and international decision-makers looking to strengthen cross-continental trade routes.


ACW: What tools or support does the event provide to help exhibitors connect with high-quality leads? Schönberger: The event’s strength lies in being a high-visibility platform where key industry players gather with intent. While there’s no formal matchmaking programme, exhibitors benefit from direct access to a highly relevant, decision-making audience walking the floor. The layout encourages engagement, and many exhibitors structure their presence to host targeted meetings or product reveals. In addition, press attention and strong brand exposure - both on-site and in the run-up to the show - help exhibitors attract the right visitors to their stands organically.


ACW: Can you share a success story or case study of an exhibitor who saw strong ROI from participating? Schönberger: At


the 2022 edition, several exhibitors used the


platform to announce new partnerships, launch services or highlight strategic developments - often with media and key stakeholders present on-site. One standout feature of the event is that it provides a stage for visibility: companies leverage the presence of international press and peers to make impactful announcements. This type of momentum-building exposure is something many exhibitors cite as a key return on their investment, and organisers expect to see even more collaborations and deals unveiled in 2025.


ACW: How do the organisers help exhibitors stand out in such a competitive and international environment? Schönberger: Exhibitors can take advantage of premium sponsorship packages, speaking opportunities, product demo stages, branded lounges, and digital spotlight features -giving innovative companies a platform to shine even in a crowded marketplace.


Strong momentum at meeting place for key players “Changes in global


trade policies directly impact companies’


network design, logistics flows and total cost of ownership within their supply chains,” said Dr Monique Murfield, associate professor and director of the center for supply chain excellence, Farmer School of Business, Miami University. “Global supply chains cannot be upended overnight, so in times of uncertainty, conferences are particularly important to provide opportunities for supply chain executives to exchange ideas and strategies.” The Miami Beach Convention Center will once again be the


meeting place for key players from across the global supply chain. Organised by Messe München, the event is the largest fair for logistics and intermodal freight transportation in the USA and brings together logistics and air cargo professionals, supply chain executives, and shippers from key industries. The format combines high-level networking on the show floor with a diverse educational


program in seminars and sessions, attracting


participants from North and South America, Europe and Asia. “The strong momentum from Munich shows that the industry


values structured exchange, especially when many markets are in transition,” says Schönberger. “With transport logistic Americas and air cargo Americas, we aim to offer exactly that kind of orientation and focus - tailored to the realities of the Americas.” Held at the intersection of key trade routes between North


and South America, Miami offers the ideal location to foster international dialogue. A comprehensive seminar program will accompany


infrastructure, nearshoring, sustainability, multimodal logistics.
