The future of the project cargo and heavy lift industry depends on the talented young professionals who will one day lead it.

At Project Cargo Network, we believe that developing the next generation is one of the most important investments our members can make. That's why we're delighted to introduce our Future Project Leaders Initiative, a programme designed to inspire, connect and support emerging talent from across our global network.

Open to delegates under the age of 30 who attend our Annual Summit alongside a senior representative from their company, the initiative provides an outstanding opportunity for younger professionals to gain invaluable international experience while building relationships that could shape their careers for years to come.

Future Project Leaders will have the opportunity to:

• Share ideas and fresh perspectives
• Discuss the challenges facing the next generation
• Explore opportunities within the project cargo and heavy lift industry
• Build lasting international connections with peers from around the world
• Help shape the future of both our industry and our network

The conclusions and ideas generated during these sessions will be shared with the wider delegation, ensuring that the voices of tomorrow's industry leaders are heard today.

To make participation as accessible as possible, we're offering a special registration fee of just £550 for eligible delegates – a 35% saving on the standard delegate rate.

By bringing younger colleagues to our Annual Summit, companies aren't simply sending an employee to a conference. They are investing in future leaders, broadening their team's global outlook, strengthening succession planning, and demonstrating a commitment to the long-term success of both their business and our industry.

We encourage members to consider nominating a promising young colleague. The relationships they build, the knowledge they gain, and the confidence they develop could become one of the most valuable investments your company makes. We are pleased to confirm the first companies already participating at our 2026 Annual Summit in China:

• Australia – Spark Global Logistics
• Taiwan – EZ Link Corp
• Thailand – MMP Logistics

Today's young professionals are tomorrow's project leaders. Let's help them get there together.
