On September 2, the expert jury met as part of the call for applications for the Digital Logistics Award 2021. Of the 49 applicants from 17 countries, eight start-ups made it to the grand finale. What is special about the award is that an expert audience of more than 500 participants and over 40 experts from the logistics industry will decide on up to four winners. For this purpose, each finalist is allowed to pitch for three minutes at the Future Logistics Congress and present himself and his innovative idea.
