Antwerp XL, one of the world’s most renowned breakbulk, project cargo and heavy lift events, returns to Belgium this November and is set to be a must-attend for all industry professionals.

Margaret Dunn, Portfolio Director at AntwerpXL, says, “The Collins English Dictionary chose ‘permacrisis’ as the most recent Word of the Year. Every breakbulk professional can relate; the external pressure on industries like ours is immense.
“But necessity is the mother of innovation, both in terms of technology, but also in thinking. The AntwerpXL conference offers insight and new ideas, bringing everyone together to enhance our collective knowledge so we can tackle the challenges of the present and future. It will be utterly unmissable!”
AntwerpXL returns to the Antwerp Expo, Belgium, from 28 – 30 November.
