The awards, in particular, was well attended and provided opportunity. I believe that the event was not as well attended as in recent years, especially on the 1st and last day. However was worthwhile attending and I will look to do the same next year. ### First time attending, very interesting — 4.6/5 *By Charlotte Ash* This was my first time attending and I found the experience interesting and informative. All the speakers at the seminars were fantastic and offered wonderful insight into the current state of the logistics chain. ### My first year of Multimodal — 3.4/5 *By Rachel Jefferies* First Multimodal event for me. The event seemed very quiet in terms of visitors. However, it was ideal for exhibitors and B2B communication due to the event being quieter and more chance to speak to people on stands. ### bright and friendly — 4.4/5 *By Natasha Humphry* enjoyed the meet up ............................................ ### Good event to meet like minded people in the Transportation and Storage Industry — 4/5 *By Tom Forsyth* Very well organised event. Enjoyable. Great way to meet and network with other personnel in the transportation and storage industries. Thought it was a bit on the small side and could have done with more exhibitors but overall a great day up at the NEC. ### first timer at Multimodal — 3.6/5 *By Lauren-Nicole Liburd* Multimodal was an interesting experience, as a logistics provider it was interesting to see the set up of other businesses and to have the opportunity to catch up with new/existing customers. I expected the show to be a lot bigger from the feedback I have had from colleagues that have previously attended. For the type of work we do, it wasn't as beneficial as an attendee, may have got more out of it as an exhibitor. Overall okay first experience ### Very nice to visit the exhibition. For partnerships and new opportunities it was very helpful. — 4.6/5 *By Kris Delfos* To meet new company's and people in the business. ### Not the best one I am afraid... — 1.6/5 *By Daria Banks* I was rather disappointed with the show this year. The atmosphere seemed flat and the number of exhibitors was less than in previous years. Might be worth considering arranging Multimodal prior to Munich Transport & Logistic show not after. ## Get a Booth Builder Quote Need a booth for this event?
