The event will be held on Friday, October 21st, 2022, at the Hyatt Regency Tower in Barcelona, Spain, with hundreds of visitors and countless business opportunities. The event that expects thousands of attendees will bring together in the same space the best professionals of road freight transport to make new business that otherwise would take months to carry out. 

A format designed to find new opportunities 

WConnecta is not a fair or a conventional congress. It is a working day with an innovative format designed for road freight transport professionals to find new customers and partners. WConnecta will remain faithful to its format based on speed networking, and quick interviews that place the participant in front of a different potential partner every 7 minutes. 

Likewise, once again the event will have the Cargo Area, where the most important logistics operators and freight forwarders in Europe will have a private space to conduct 15-minute interviews (previously scheduled) with carriers interested in collaborating with them. 

This will be complemented by the Coffee Area, a permanent cafeteria area for informal meetings, and the Business Center, a meeting space that companies will be able to access in the afternoon for more intimate business meetings. 

WConnecta is back at a time when business-to-business collaboration is now more necessary than ever to reduce empty runs, making this event the best place for carriers and logistics operators to expand their network and opportunities for more sustainable business growth.
