I did participate in the Logata Trend Day 2018 yesterday, with all topics focused around Digital Transformation in the logistics area. To keep a long story short, I will just focus on the highlights of the key note speech from Konstanze Kossack, COO of Future Candy (http://www.futurecandy.com/en/company/about/). Konstanze just came back from the CES 2018 in Las Vegas and did provide some great insights into the latest and greatest technology. I will try to summarize with some links for reference:
