“The CargoNXT conference was absolutely remarkable, and the theme ‘Logistics for Beyond Boundaries’ was brought to life. A key takeaway for me was the urgent need to reduce food wastage in India, which is nearly 40%. We need to deploy technologies like blockchain, IoT, and best practices in logistics to minimise this. The speakers—government, quasi-government, and private entities—were top-notch, and the sessions really connected on a deeper level. The networking opportunities were excellent, and I met people with cutting-edge solutions in automation and smart manufacturing. Kudos to the Cargo Insights team for organising such a well-run event. I’m confident CargoNXT will reach new heights, and I wouldn’t be surprised if it soon becomes a global conference.”

“I’ve seen Yogita work hard on this new profile for herself since she started at Cargo Insights, and it’s a privilege to see her grow. She’s brought the whole industry together, and when I compare it with other established awards and conventions, I think it’s excellent. It has the makings of a complete success, and I’m very happy that we were recognised as a leader in logistics.
At this year’s CargoNXT conference, I really appreciated the interaction with many people from the supply chain, especially shippers. Hearing their perspectives, alongside topics like sustainability and AI, made for a great experience. Time flew by!

“This is the second edition of Cargo Insights, and I must say the organisation of the event today has been extremely well done. My big compliment goes to the entire CargoNXT team for conceiving this. The participation at this magnitude in just the second year speaks volumes, and everyone on the team should take credit for this.
The sessions were informative and knowledgeable, particularly with the inclusion of people from the manufacturing industry. The quality of attendance was remarkable, showcasing strong participation from the supply chain sector.
This time, the discussions on the future and how data can be amalgamated with insights were commendable. I connected with many key individuals in the supply chain industry, which I greatly appreciate. As a board advisor for CargoNXT, I recognise how rare it is for a startup organisation to host such a successful conference within two years of inception. Kudos to the team for achieving this!”
Vineet Chadha, Combined Logistics
“To be honest, it’s always overwhelming to receive this award. We have been in this business for 25 years, and the award we received for first and last mile logistics is significant because the last mile plays a crucial role in our industry, where appreciation comes from the end customer. This recognition is truly wonderful.
The CargoNXT conference was full of knowledge, and if I have to pick key takeaways, it’s hard because every session was insightful. India is growing, and we need to adopt new strategies to shine. The young group at CargoNXT is doing great work, connecting the world and bringing everyone together.
Yogita and her amazing team, including Jatin, have a wealth of experience, and they are effectively covering industry issues. It’s exciting to see different concerns addressed at one table.”

The Air Cargo Agents Association of India, and my company have been involved in moving books into India for over three decades. We pioneered the movement of books like the Harry Potter series back in the ’90s, facing many challenges without today’s communication tools, but we succeeded with flying colours. At this year’s CargoNXT conference, the innovation in logistics and AI was evident, making life easier for everyone. The evening awards event was fantastic, showcasing the grand success of various industries. Congratulations to Jatin and Yogita for their wonderful job! It was great to reconnect with old colleagues at CargoNXT, and I’m thrilled to see the remarkable growth and hard work of the Cargo Insights team. Thank you!”

When you receive one, the entire team gets motivated, and they perform even better afterward. This is the best way to encourage people to reach greater heights.
At this year’s CargoNXT conference, we discussed artificial intelligence, sustainability, and many other topics. The presence of customs officials and the senior economic advisor from the Ministry of Civil Aviation facilitated a valuable exchange of ideas and policy suggestions.

This recognition gives us confidence to achieve more and do more.
From this year’s CargoNXT conference, my key takeaway is the importance of technology-enabled logistics, especially with advancements in artificial intelligence, smart automation, and IoT. The discussions covered diverse aspects of logistics 4.0, which is synonymous with the fourth industrial revolution and pivotal for the industry’s future.
CargoNXT was highly effective; after my inaugural speech, several industry players approached us proactively to establish collaborations. Many expressed interest in joint research activities and enhancing the skilling horizon of the logistics sector.
Cargo Insights is a committed group transforming the logistics ecosystem. I’m pleased to see them building natural partnerships, and I wish the Cargo Insights team all the best as they continue their impactful work.”

India is a significant market for us, and I’m looking for partnership opportunities to enhance trade between India and Canada. This is my first time attending, and it’s been a fantastic experience; I’ve met so many people and hope to attend more of these events in the future.
At this year’s CargoNXT conference, I was particularly impressed by the discussions on AI and other innovations in logistics. While I haven’t been in the Indian logistics sector for a while, it’s evident that India is headed in the right direction, with phenomenal growth in logistics and supply chain. The potential here is extraordinary, and I see great opportunities every time I visit.
CargoNXT has been an effective platform for networking. Although I’ve only been here a couple of hours, I’ve connected with industry leaders I wouldn’t have met otherwise. Cargo Insights has done a fabulous job; I see immense potential in their future endeavours in India.”

My success comes from always being the first to jump on opportunities, which has been my approach throughout my life. At this year’s CargoNXT conference, I learnt that technology is crucial in logistics. The ability to track consignments in real-time has transformed the industry, thanks to advancements like AI. Without companies like Cargo Insights, we wouldn’t have the information necessary to achieve optimal logistics solutions. Their work is essential for the industry.”
Vipin Vohra, Chairman, Continental Carriers:
“I’m really happy that we got this recognition. This is one of the best awards, and in its second year, Yogita and Jatin have done an excellent job. The whole team has worked very hard, and I believe next year should be even bigger. Receiving this award gives us more responsibility; it encourages us to look toward the future and strive to do much better.
At this year’s CargoNXT conference, it was impressive to hear many shippers on stage sharing their insights. Previously, conferences mainly featured airlines or terminal operators, but this time, the presence of shippers and logistics experts allowed us to learn from their experiences and understand how to enhance our services to meet their needs.
The sessions were well-prepared, and I attended numerous discussions that provided valuable knowledge. The last session, moderated by an expert from SKF, was particularly impactful, highlighting the growth potential in the automobile sector.
Overall, the CargoNXT Conference serves as a significant encouragement for the entire industry. We’ve learnt a lot and have many areas to improve upon for the future.”
