Posted on | by admin

Globalia Logistics Network continues to make networking and collaboration easier for its members with a suite of dedicated communication tools designed to keep forwarders connected

Globalia Logistics Network continues to provide its members with a seamless way to stay connected, collaborate, and grow their business. Forwarders rely on a suite of tools that make it easier to manage partnerships and access opportunities across the globe.

The Members Area serves as the core hub of the network. Here, forwarders can access the full directory and search for partners by territory, city, or specialization, along with all relevant contact details. Each company’s profile includes its logo, website, designated contacts for the WhatsApp group, and other key information that simplifies communication.

Members can also access their account details and documents, membership certificates, and official logos in one place. When the Annual Meeting approaches, they can complete registration, view attendee data, and prepare for one-on-one meetings. The Members Area is a central platform that brings together every resource members need to strengthen cooperation.

Globalia’s WhatsApp group is a fast, direct way for members to share updates, ask questions, and stay in the loop. It helps forwarders connect in real time, exchange opportunities, and solve issues quickly. This instant communication keeps the network active and collaborative every day.

Globalia’s web app ensures members can stay connected on the go, enabling them to manage their logistics operations and partnerships directly from their mobile devices. With instant access to emails and contact numbers of agents in over 126 countries, members can reach their partners immediately. The app also allows forwarders to locate reliable freight agents in specific cities, streamlining the process of finding the right partners in key locations.

Additionally, Globalia’s Annual Meeting web app, first launched in 2023, has been upgraded to offer an even smoother experience for delegates. Accessible via smartphone, the app lets members log in with their email and password to view the full agenda, delegate list, company details, program schedule, and travel tips. This tool consolidates all key event information in one place, making it simple and hassle-free for members to stay organized and focus on networking during the busy days of the meeting.

Globalia’s presence of WeChat creates yet another real-time communication channel.  This platform is especially valuable for members who may not be on WhatsApp, as it provides them with the opportunity to leverage WeChat’s instant communication feature for seamless interaction with their network partners.

These communication tools are at the core of Globalia’s mission to strengthen its global community. By providing instant access to information and multiple ways to interact, the network empowers members to respond quickly to opportunities, build relationships efficiently, and operate with a competitive edge in the fast-moving logistics industry.

The One-to-One Meeting Scheduler for Globalia’s 6th Annual Meeting will Open in Three Weeks

Posted on | by admin

The one-to-one meetings with network partners are the core networking activity of the event that allows the members to fortify business relationships with trusted logistics partners

The one-to-one meetings at Globalia’s 6th Annual Meeting serve as the cornerstone of the event, providing members with the opportunity to strengthen business relationships with trusted network partners. This structured networking initiative allows delegates to connect with reliable freight forwarders from around the world, fostering collaboration and driving new business opportunities.

The meeting scheduler will officially open on 2nd April for agents who have applied and paid for Priority Access. The following day, on 3rd April, the scheduler will be available to all other attendees. On that date, Globalia’s Head Office will send delegates an email with a link and personal login details, allowing them to book meetings directly for the event, which will take place from 3rd to 5th May 2025.

Using Globalia’s user-friendly online scheduler, each delegate can book up to 21 meetings in advance and maximize their networking potential. To optimize scheduling, participants are encouraged to review the delegate list and company profiles before the scheduler opens, allowing them to prioritize key connections. The scheduler also offers additional features to enhance the meeting experience. Globalia’s team has prepared a guide for delegates to walk them through essential steps and tips to ensure they make the most of their one-on-one meetings.

By accessing the Scheduler, delegates can download their personalized agendas, ensuring they have a clear overview of their scheduled meetings. To make the most of the event, Globalia recommends securing as many meeting slots as possible, ensuring ample opportunities to establish valuable partnerships.

Delegates can schedule the meetings two weeks before the event, once the scheduler opens. They will receive an email containing their login credentials, allowing them to book meetings using two methods. They can search for a company by entering the country in which it is based or select a time slot and then choose the company with whom they wish to meet.

Once a meeting is booked, it is automatically confirmed—there is no need for additional confirmation from the invited company. The scheduler will display all scheduled meetings, including invitations received from other participants.

Additionally, delegates can click the “Block” button on the scheduler to manage their availability. This will prevent scheduling of any meeting during those times. If a preferred company has no available slots, delegates should reach out directly to arrange a meeting during coffee breaks, lunch, the cocktail reception, or the gala dinner.

Globalia’s one-to-one meetings provide an unparalleled opportunity for freight forwarders to establish and strengthen professional partnerships. With the scheduler opening soon, participants should prepare in advance to ensure they make the most of this exclusive networking experience.
