World Mail & Express Americas Conference & Exhibition in Miami addresses future strategies
Two hundred delegates from all sides of the industry recently met in Miami at the 3rd World Mail & Express Americas Conference and Exhibition (organised by Triangle).
The overriding conclusion from the event is that there will undoubtedly be more cooperation in the Americas between the public and private sectors in mail as well as in express. Several presentations addressed this subject as well as the future of e-commerce and customers’ presentations stressed the need to encourage more innovation from the post offices.
Gabriel Mateescu, Chairman of the Council of Administration of the UPU, discussed the development of the UPU Consultative Committee as several delegates felt that this should be regionalised as well as co-ordinated on a global basis.
The presentation from Guatemala Post Office highlighted the new business model of government outsourcing the management of a post office. Correos de Chile talked of its successful partnership with TNT.
The 4th World Mail & Express Americas Conference & Exhibition will be held in Miami in December next year – make a note in your diary!
