With the help of speakers from across Europe, pinpoint the benefits of competition, the strategies for long-term success, the mutual benefits of efficient partnerships, how to reinvent business in the crisis and how to use the downturn as an opportunity rather than an obstacle.

EuroFreight will also allow you the opportunity to learn from your peers through a series of case studies. From Russia to Belgium to Estonia and from the Commission to CLECAT, work together to secure the survival of the freight industry.

Over 150 senior rail freight industry executives will attend
A content driven agenda created by and delivered by the CEOs from Europe’s leading rail freight operators

“Great event, will definitely attend next time.”

Erik Velderman, Finance Director, NedTrain
