About this event
MODEX 2028 is where the future of warehouse operations gets practical. If you care about how goods move faster, safer, and more intelligently through fulfillment centers, distribution networks, and manufacturing environments, this is the place to see the technologies shaping that next chapter up close. From warehouse robotics to broader supply chain tech, MODEX 2028 brings together the systems, ideas, and conversations that matter right now. Rather than reading about automation in theory, you can spend time in the room with the tools, platforms, and people driving real operational change. What Is This? MODEX 2028 is an in-person industry event in Atlanta focused on warehouse robotics, supply chain technology, and the broader infrastructure behind modern material handling. It is designed for people who need to understand where automation is going and how those changes connect to throughput, labor, accuracy, resilience, and cost. This is the kind of event where strategy and implementation meet. You are not just looking at big-picture trends; you are also evaluating what technologies appear ready for deployment, what kinds of workflows they support, and how robotics fits into larger operational systems. Because the event centers on warehouse robotics and supply chain tech, expect a mix of product discovery, market scanning, and peer learning. Whether you are comparing solutions, tracking industry movement, or trying to sharpen your point of view on automation, the format supports hands-on exploration and focused conversations. What to Expect Expect a live, in-person environment built around discovery and evaluation. A strong event like this typically gives you space to move between technology showcases, category exploration, and conversations with teams who understand operational constraints in the real world. You can use your time at MODEX 2028 to explore topics such as: Warehouse robotics systems for moving, picking, sorting, staging, and transporting goods Supply chain technologies that improve visibility, planning, orchestration, and execution Automation workflows that connect software, equipment, labor, and facility operations Operational design questions around scale, integration, flexibility, and performance Emerging trends in robotics adoption across distribution and warehouse environments For many attendees, the most valuable moments come from comparing approaches side by side. One solution may promise speed, another flexibility, another easier integration into existing facilities. Seeing categories together helps you ask better questions about tradeoffs, readiness, and fit. You should also expect useful informal interactions. In-person events often create room for the conversations that do not happen on vendor calls or inside slide decks: candid talk about deployment lessons, implementation concerns, organizational buy-in, and what actually changes once automation is introduced into a live operation. Why Attend If your work touches warehousing, fulfillment, logistics, operations, or supply chain transformation, MODEX 2028 can help you get sharper faster. Instead of piecing together information from scattered sources, you can evaluate the landscape in one place and build a more grounded view of where the market is heading. This event is especially valuable if you are trying to separate signal from noise. Robotics and supply chain tech move quickly, and not every new capability is equally relevant to your environment. Attending in person gives you a better chance to assess maturity, ask specific operational questions, and understand how solutions may perform beyond a polished headline. You may leave with: A clearer map of the technology landscape across warehouse robotics and supply chain systems Better questions for internal planning around automation, investment, and operational change Stronger pattern recognition about what categories are gaining traction and why More confidence in vendor and solution evaluation based on direct observation and live discussion Useful peer context from others solving similar operational problems For teams thinking seriously about modernization, events like MODEX 2028 are not just inspiring; they are efficient. You can compress weeks or months of research into a concentrated in-person experience and return with practical insight that informs next steps. Practical Details MODEX 2028 takes place in person in Atlanta, US. If face-to-face evaluation matters to you, that format is a real advantage. You can engage directly with technologies, spend more time in substantive conversations, and navigate the event based on the areas most relevant to your role and priorities. The listed start time is Saturday, January 1 at 12:00 AM UTC. If you are traveling or planning your schedule from another time zone, it is worth confirming the local timing and building in enough time for arrival, on-site navigation, and follow-up meetings. A few practical ways to get more from the event: Arrive with priorities: know which categories, workflows, or operational questions matter most Plan for conversations: some of the best value comes from asking detailed, situation-specific questions Take structured notes: compare solutions based on fit, integration, flexibility, and expected impact Leave room in your schedule: unexpected discoveries are often part of what makes in-person industry events useful If warehouse robotics and supply chain technology are high on your agenda for the coming year, MODEX 2028 is a strong place to focus your attention. It offers a practical setting to explore what is changing, what is becoming deployable, and what may be worth bringing back to your team.
Who should attend
This is for people who want a sharper, more practical understanding of how robotics and supply chain technology are changing warehouse operations. - **You lead warehouse, fulfillment, or distribution operations** and want to evaluate tools that could improve throughput, accuracy, labor efficiency, or flow across your facilities. - **You work in supply chain, logistics, or operations strategy** and need a clearer view of which automation and technology trends are meaningful versus overhyped. - **You are responsible for innovation, transformation, or digital initiatives** and want to see how warehouse robotics fits into broader operational and systems planning. - **You evaluate vendors, equipment, or technology investments** and would benefit from comparing categories and approaches in person rather than through isolated demos. - **You are an engineer, systems integrator, or technical operator** looking to understand how emerging robotics solutions may connect with real warehouse workflows. - **You are a founder, investor, analyst, or industry builder** tracking where supply chain tech is heading and want direct exposure to the market, the language, and the operational problems shaping demand. If you need more than trend headlines and want grounded insight you can actually use, you will likely find this event worth your time.
