The World Mail & Express Conference and Exhibition in Berlin last week exceeded all expectations in turnout and quality.

Almost 400 industry members passed through the doors of the Estrel Hotel between 25th and 27th May to participate in the event. On the first evening, delegates were treated to a spectacular river cruise through Berlin on a paddle steamer by the host sponsor, Deutsche Post. The cruise entertained many of the most senior personnel from the industry and proved an excellent networking part of the event. The conference itself ended on a high note, when CEO’s from all the major mail and express operators faced interrogative questions from the audience. Combined with an exhibition, showcasing 26 organisations products and services, this was a real focal point for the mail and express community.

The next in the World series of Mail & Express events will be in Hong Kong, during November and then in Miami during December.

Host sponsor for next year's European event is Belgian Post which will be taking place at the Sheraton Hotel in Brussels on 11th-13th May.
