Attendees can expect concrete insights on how to strategically navigate the evolving market for electric forklifts, manage rising energy costs, and position their businesses for long-term success.

“As a company with a rich history in helping businesses transition to lithium, we understand that ROI shouldn’t rely solely on subsidies to drive adoption,” said JF Marchand, Marketing Director at UgoWork. “Instead, the focus should be on activating profitable mechanisms that make electrification a smart, self-sustaining investment.”

“Despite economic uncertainties, the material handling sector remains strong, with key indicators pointing to continued electrification, accelerated lithium adoption, and ongoing market consolidation”, said Philippe Beauchamp, President and CEO of UgoWork. “There’s no shortage of innovative battery technologies trying to push the limits of performance and efficiency. But in the end, their true value is measured by their impact on the bottom line.”

As a must-attend event for supply chain professionals, ProMat 2025 is the ideal venue to explore the latest innovations shaping the future of material handling.
