Frequently Asked Questions
Program & Content
Freight Advance Summit focuses specifically on urban delivery challenges instead of just broad supply chain topics. We bring together three stakeholder groups who rarely collaborate: logistics operators, city planners, and technology providers. The format emphasizes peer learning and hands-on workshops over mostly vendor presentations.
Navigate Mobility focuses on passenger mobility where the focus is on how people move around cities (public transit, cycling, micro-mobility, walking infrastructure). Freight Advance Summit focuses on urban goods movement including last mile and middle mile. It tackles how products, parcels, and freight move through cities (delivery, logistics, cargo). Two distinct challenges requiring different solutions, though both address urban sustainability.
Should you attend both? If you’re a city planner managing both passenger and freight issues, yes. There is also a 10% dual event discount. If you’re a logistics operator, this summit is specifically for you.
This is common. Every concurrent session is valuable. Solution: All mainstage sessions are recorded and available post the summit. Attend your priority session live, then watch recordings of others later.
Workshops are not recorded. We recommend choosing your workshop carefully based on your immediate priorities.
Absolutely. All sessions include Q&A time except, in few instances, keynote sessions.
Where possible, we’ll share presentation slides 1 week before the summit so you can review content and prepare questions. Not all speakers provide slides in advance (some prefer to keep content current until event day), but we’ll share what’s available.
All slides are provided post conference.

We designed one intensive day intentionally based on feedback from logistics professionals:
– Easier to justify time away from operations
– Lower attendance costs (fly in morning, fly out next day)
– Higher concentration of value (no filler content)
– Evening reception extends networking into informal setting
Many three-day conferences have half-empty rooms by day three. We’d rather have 100% engagement for one full day. That said, many attendees could consider staing an extra day to explore Prague or extend networking conversations.
