SIL
International Logistics and Maintenance Exhibition
The latest edition surpassed expecta-
tions, confirming the recover of logistics
and paper as drivers in the Spanish
economy. More than 550 companies took
part, 45% of them foreign, making this
the most international show in the history
of SIL. Particularly notable were the trade
missions sent by Algeria , Colombia,
China, Egypt, the Lebanon and Morocco
among other country clubs.
SIL’s importance as a meeting point for
the logistics business between the Medi-
terranean and Latin America was also
cemented with the celebration of the 13th
Mediterranean Forum of Logistics and
Transport, the 8th Mediterranean Sum-
mit of Ports and the 4th Latin American
Logistics Summit.
More than 3,600 professionals at-
tended SIL as delegates at the 20-plus
seminars organised, in which 87 speak-
ers took part. The speed dating sessions
and networking lunches organised by
the Logistics Circle, with the participation
of more than 300 directors of logistics,
generated over 1,000 B2B meetings and
more than 1,600 business interviews.
