The ITLS Seminar Series: Leadership, Policy and Research brings together our long‑running Leadership & Policy and Research seminar programs into a single, dynamic platform showcasing national and international thought leaders in transport, logistics and supply chain management. Featuring a mix of formats—including expert panels, fireside conversations and alumni tales—the series offers fresh insights into contemporary challenges and emerging ideas shaping the sector. Guided by our convenors Professors Rico Merkert, John Nelson and Michael Bell, the seminars attract a diverse audience from industry, government, academia and our own research community.

All sessions are held monthly (in hybrid format) during the day from March to November with the exception of panel events which take place in the early evening and in-person only.

Invitations are sent to our mailing list at least one week in advance. Seminars are free, however, we do ask you to RSVP, so please respond to the seminar invitation.
