Logistics Bureau have been running Seminars and Training Events since 1997.
Whilst our main business is Management Consulting, knowledge sharing is a central pillar of our core values within Logistics Bureau. Our whole team enjoys the interaction and passing on tips and insights to the broader industry.
It’s a great chance for us connect with others in our industry and we genuinely enjoy providing a learning and networking opportunity for everyone who attends. If you have been to one of our events, you’ll know what we mean.
A good question. For many years our events were free!
But now we generally request a ‘token’ payment for tickets, as we put this to use in our charity work. On the day you’ll see where your $33 is going. And it will be donated, on the day.
Rob O’Byrne our CEO is a strong believer in providing knowledge to the industry at minimal cost. We are not a conference company that needs to charge $1,000 or more per one day event. We provide these events as a value add to our clients, friends and the broader industry, simply because we want to.
Our ‘day job’ is helping our consulting clients improve their businesses.
At these events, our Subject Matter Experts share their insights and tips on all aspects of Logistics and Supply Chain.
With 22 years of management consulting experience, across 24 countries we have seen it all. And we have lots of valuable tips to share with you.
