It’s time again at the end of August – JTL Connect offers a day full of information about online business. The event in Düsseldorf, the capital of North Rhine-Westphalia, gives online retailers, those who want to become online retailers and eCommerce entrepreneurs a comprehensive insight into the world of online business and the associated solutions. There will be plenty of informative presentations, interesting exhibitors and exciting activities, making the event a must-attend event for members of the industry.
The basics
JTL-Connect 2018 will once again take place in the Mitsubishi Electric HALLE in Düsseldorf on August 31. The 3,000 square meter area of the event hall is ideally suited for our increased number of visitors and exhibitors. In 2018, we have invited around 80 exhibitors, where you can find out about a wide range of solutions and services for online business. Whether you want to find out about payment providers such as our main sponsor Amazon Pay or logistics providers such as DHL, Parcel.ONE or Hermes, they will all be represented with stands on site. You will also meet many of our service partners at JTL Connect, who will be able to provide you with specific advice on the implementation of projects.
After the obligatory keynote speech by Thomas Lisson, visitors to the main stage will receive new information about the upcoming JTL-Wawi 1.4. For many, the first insights into JTL-Shop 5 and the associated OnPage Composer should also be particularly exciting. Throughout the day, you can expect more than 30 exciting presentations in which our speakers will address both business and technical aspects. Are you new to the online business? No problem, because we offer many points of contact, especially for newcomers, to give you tips for success in eCommerce.
Why you should definitely not miss JTL Connect 2018
Many of you have probably already noticed it in your daily work as an online retailer: many sub-areas, especially shipping and logistics requirements, are changing rapidly. Customers expect ever faster deliveries, while some retailers are now deciding to replace in-house shipping in favor of fulfillment solutions. A lot is also happening with payment service providers – the topic of voice commerce in particular, which our main sponsor Amazon Pay is addressing, offers exciting opportunities for the coming years.
If that’s not enough, you should check out the fascinating presentations by Karl Kratz (The art of digital touch), Otto Kelm (Learning to be a customer on Amazon) or the topic of brand building with Bernhard Rauscher.

Powerful solutions in JTL-Wawi: JTL-Shipping and JTL-Packing Bench+
If you like it a size smaller than our professional warehouse management, you will find what you are looking for at the JTL-Packing Bench+ and JTL-Shipping stand. There, we will be using side packing tables to demonstrate how eCommerce newcomers in particular can simplify their shipping business enormously with the two on-board tools of JTL-Wawi. We will also provide information about the extensive integration of logistics providers with JTL-Wawi using JTL-Shipping.
It's worth staying late - our after-show party
What would a JTL Connect be without a dazzling after-show party? If you didn’t have much of an opportunity to network during the trade fair, you can take advantage of the relaxed lounge atmosphere in the evening and make up for it with live music, BBQ and cold drinks. After all, our events are characterized by the exchange between professionals and new sellers, solution providers and customers, partners and lone fighters. Here you can learn about best practices, different perspectives and small eye-openers for daily business.
Therefore: Visit us and our partners, meet members of the JTL community and take home relevant eCommerce news. We look forward to your visit and lots of great conversations about online business!
