LogisticsConnect will open its doors again at the Congress Centrum Bremen (CCB) from March 5 to 6, 2026. LogisticsConnect is the only trade fair in Germany with a congress character that is specifically tailored to professionals in the fields of project logistics, break bulk, RORO, and heavy lift. It combines lectures, panel discussions, and practical workshops. The aim is to create a platform for networking, knowledge transfer, and industry innovation – in line with the National Port Strategy.

Together with the LogDynamics research cluster, BIBA will be represented at the trade exhibition and will present the topic “AI in logistics and ports.” We cordially invite you to visit us at the joint stand “Bremen/Bremerhaven” No. CCB-B02. Look forward to learning about innovative logistics projects and being inspired by examples of AI in ports.

The virtual impulse seminar provides an overview of technologies for increasing transparency in supply chains. We also give you an in-depth insight into the use of mobile sensor technology and artificial intelligence in the supply chain. You can look forward to an innovative technical solution for a networked, intelligent supply chain that integrates mobile sensors, gateways, 3D image processing, cloud platforms and digital services. As a result, quality-relevant environmental influences on the products as well as condition-relevant data from transports, such as geolocation, are continuously recorded and digitized with mobile and stationary sensors. Based on this data, digital services are provided for the companies involved, which help to identify transport problems at an early stage and provide further assistance in ensuring product and process quality.

Every year, BIBA participates in the nationwide Supply Chain Day with the Mittelstand Digital Zentrum Bremen Oldenburg and offers an event with changing topics. In 2026, the focus will be on cybersecurity in logistics.

True to the motto “AI in logistics? But of course!”, we cordially invite you to discover the potential of digitalization and artificial intelligence in logistics, with a special focus on relevant cybersecurity aspects. You can look forward to compact keynote speeches from science and industry, practical live demonstrations in the BIBA shop floor lab and opportunities to exchange ideas with experts.

As part of the expo, we will demonstrate, among other things, how energy resilience and the protection of critical infrastructures work in practice, how cyberattacks in logistics environments are detected and analyzed, how deepfakes are created, and what methods exist for detecting them. We will also showcase automated driving and the use of AI for process optimization in port operations, networked and assisted forklift solutions for internal use, and an administration shell demonstrator that illustrates the use of digital twins for interoperable data networking.

BIBA is participating in Girl's Day again this year. Female students are invited to gain exciting insights into the world of technology and research. This allows them to become interested in studying science or technology. Low-threshold hands-on tasks allow participants to experience technology up close. They can also get creative themselves. 
The Mycelium Workshop focuses on mycelium composites. Students learn what this sustainable material is and how versatile it can be—for example, by building their own candle holders. In addition, our hackspace in the BIBA research hall opens its doors. From product design for 3D printing to the precise manufacture of small parts with a laser cutter to personalized giveaways: here, students can develop their own ideas and implement them immediately.
