A year shaped by our community

The OLF Member Journey creates a regular rhythm for our community. Each meeting has a different purpose, but together they form a continuous cycle: we connect, learn, reflect and develop.

These are the moments when our members come together as one community. Throughout the year, the journey creates opportunities to:

N

Stay connected and informed about OLF activities and topics that matter to our community.

N

Gain new perspectives and inspiration by exchanging knowledge with fellow members and external experts.

N

Shape what comes next by bringing ideas, challenges, and opportunities into the conversation.

Four opportunities to connect

From staying aligned to exploring what comes next, the Member Journey creates shared spaces for the OLF community to come together across topics and interests. They complement the focused collaboration and development that continues in dedicated Working Groups, projects, and Strategic Circles throughout the year.

1. Spring Virtual Update

Connect & realign
We kick off the year together, sharing updates on ongoing OLF activities and topics of interest. It’s a chance to reconnect with the community align on priorities, and look ahead at what is coming next.

2. Open Source Innovation Days

Learn & get inspired
We come together in person to look beyond our work and learn from external experts. The exchange of perspectives helps us challenge assumptions and open up to fresh thinking, and new insights inspire us to discover more possibilities for open source logistics.

3. Autumn Virtual Update

Reflect & move forward
Halfway through the year, we reconnect virtually to share what has happened, what we have learned, and where our collaborative developments are heading. The update offers an opportunity to reflect on progress and set the direction for the remainder of the year.

4. Idea Workshop

Shape & create
We meet again in person, this time to explore what comes next for our community. Through open exchange and collaborative ideation, we identify new challenges and opportunities that can become the foundation for future OLF developments. The ideas that emerge here carry us into the next chapter of our journey.

Meeting grounds 

Generating ideas, deepening expertise: the Open Logistics Foundation’s member formats create dedicated spaces for open exchange, inspiration, and meaningful networking among peers.

Ideation Workshop

The Ideation Workshop is the central space for creative collaboration within the network. Members contribute ideas, explore different perspectives, and develop approaches together. Here, inspiration evolves into viable concepts, refined through collective expertise and put into action.
