FIATA WORLD CONGRESS (FWC) – The World Congress of the International Federation of Freight Forwarders Associations – is the world's largest and most important event in the field of freight forwarding. Held annually in FIATA member countries, the organization was founded in 1926 and currently represents nearly 200 national associations and more than 6,000 individual members in more than 150 countries and territories.

In the context of globalization and the strong development of e-commerce, the logistics industry is playing an increasingly important role. In 2025, Vietnam will be honored to host the FIATA World Congress in Hanoi for the first time. This international event is expected to attract about 1,000 delegates, including leaders of national logistics associations, international organizations, and leaders of logistics enterprises from across the globe.

The “FIATA World Congress 2025 Theme Creation Contest” organized in Hanoi, Vietnam is an important highlight in the event series, aiming to encourage creative and innovative ideas, connecting the global logistics community.

As a leading Port and Logistics enterprise committed to continuous innovation, Gemadept Corporation is proud to be the main sponsor of this Competition. Through this, Gemadept collaborates with the Vietnamese Port and Logistics business community to nurture young talents, contributing to developing a high-quality workforce and inspiring breakthrough and effective ideas for the Vietnamese Logistics industry.

After nearly a month of launching the contest and almost the same amount of time spent reviewing and evaluating each theme, the Organizing Committee and Jury have determined 7 outstanding themes to award prizes, including 1 Special Prize, 1 First Prize and 5 Creative Prizes.

The Organizing Committee received 67 entries from 67 authors across the country. Each entry showcased unique perspectives and innovative ideas, enriching the FWC 2025 event. The authors mostly focused on themes such as green and smart supply chains, enhancing the adaptability of supply chains, and fostering sustainable supply chains through collaboration, demonstrating their keen interest and deep understanding of global freight forwarding industry trends.

The competition is not only a useful and meaningful playground but also a place to nurture and develop new ideas because creativity and innovation are one of the golden keys to bringing the logistics industry to new heights.

We are honored to be a part of the “FIATA World Congress 2025 Theme Creation Contest”. Gemadept is committed to continuing our active role in promoting the sustainable and prosperous development of the Vietnamese and global logistics industry.
