In March 2026, the global WAVE network´s conference will meet again. This time on the Malaysian island of Langkawi. And JARO will be there.
The event brings together independent freight forwarders and technology innovators. However, WAVE is more than just another industry conference. Instead, it is a place where people share real experience, open new business opportunities, and build partnerships that reshape global logistics.
What makes WAVE different?
WAVE connects the people who truly make logistics work.
Because of this approach, participants focus on what really matters: developing new business, strengthening trust, and working together on increasingly complex supply chains.
As a result, WAVE does not look like a typical trade event. It combines business and long-lasting relationship in unique way.
What can participants expect?
Participants can look forward to a practical and business-driven program:
• An up-to-date overview of global logistics, including trends, risks, and emerging opportunities
• Workshops and panel discussions focused on real operational challenges
• One-to-one meetings that enable targeted business talks with partners from different countries
(Last year alone, over 1,080 meetings took place. This year, even more are expected.)
• Cultural and historical experiences on the island, which add a personal dimension to professional meetings
Moreover, the event takes place at The Westin Langkawi Resort & Spa. This setting naturally combines a professional conference environment with the calm of tropical nature.
Why does WAVE matter to JARO?
Each year, WAVE takes place in a different country. Nevertheless, one principle remains the same:
sharing experience, discovering new ways to cooperate, and building relationships that go beyond standard business contacts.
Our perspective
“The future of logistics is not shaped only by routes or technology, but by partnerships that dare to look beyond the next shipment.”
For us, WAVE is exactly about that: people, trust, and collaboration that move global trade forward.
