2009-10: FREIGHTWISE DRAWS THE CROWDS AT ITS WORLD CONGRESS

The Freightwise project had a stand at the ITS World Congress Exhibition in Stockholm and gave presentations twice daily to a growing number of delegates who wanted to learn more about the Freightwise Framework.

At some presentations there was literally "standing room only" as interest in Freightwise grew through the week. Demonstrations featured live links via the internet and mobile phones to real business cases.

Freightwise was also the subject of four presentations during the ITS Congress itself and received a very favourable reception.

Jan Tore Pedersen was delighted with the interest generated by our presence in the exhibition. He commented "The reactions from the audiences clearly show that Freightwise produces results that are of interest both to research and industrial communities and that the timing seems right for the results that Freightwise produces."
