Roland Berger Strategy Consultants and the University of St. Gallen's Chair of Logistics
Management conducted this study in order to identify and assess switchpoints that
will shape the future of the logistics industry. Rather than making projections focused
on a fixed point in time, the authors instead aimed to identify the most unpredictable
developments that could impact logistics. Consequently, the topics for discussion
range from fairly specific near-future developments to more exploratory "blue-sky"
topics. Throughout their highly interesting discussions with respondents and experts,
the authors encountered a wide range of uncommon and unexpected, but not at all unlikely
projections for the future--Publisher's note
