Hybrid. Virtually online and in-person at MIT
The MIT SCALE Conference for Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) was a hybrid event. We were hybrid and joined on MIT's campus, or from anywhere in the world! Participants reviewed presentations from top academics and practitioners who are developing high-impact research projects for the region and participate in keynote plenary sessions and networking events.
This gathering provides a vital forum for researchers, practitioners, and policymakers from LAC or working with the region to share in high-impact research and educational approaches on the topics of freight transportation, logistics, and supply chain management. Download proceedings from the last 2020/2021 conference.
This conference is organized by the MIT SCALE network for Latin America and the Caribbean, a network composed of over 40 top-ranked universities throughout the LAC region, that link to the Center for Latin-American Logistics Innovation (CLI), nucleus of the network, and to the MIT Center for Transportation & Logistics (CTL) through research and annual programming.
The goal of the network is to drive cutting-edge research, education, and outreach that embrace socioeconomic, logistics, and supply chain challenges in the context of LAC, by developing and disseminating innovative strategies to address and to solve those challenges within the region.
The network helps companies, governments, and other organizations to compete in an increasingly complex business environment and engages academia, students, and partners to collaborate on projects that have an in-depth economic, societal, and environmental impact.
