DEKRA Future Congress Commercial Vehicles in Early June in Berlin

In autumn 2021, the DEKRA Future Congress Commercial Vehicles had to be canceled due to the pandemic. A new edition is now planned for June 2 and 3, 2022. Since 2015, the event has established itself as the central platform for exchange within the transport and logistics industry with its three editions. A physical event in Berlin is again planned.

(Stuttgart/Berlin) The DEKRA Future Congress Commercial Vehicles stands for high-profile experts from the vehicle and supplier industry, politics, and science. The program is titled “Future-proof transportation” and is divided into three partially parallel thematic strands: Commercial Vehicle Technology, Digitalization, and Last Mile.

Overall, the organizers expect more than 350 experts, scientists, and top managers from renowned companies in the commercial vehicle industry – including many from internationally oriented companies such as Chereau SAS, Continental, Dachser, DAF, Daimler Truck, Fleetboard Logistics, Goodyear Dunlop Tires, IKEA, Knorr-Bremse, Kögel, Krone, MAN, Quantron, Rhenus, Scania, Schmitz Cargobull, Shell, and ZF Friedrichshafen.
