Dear [Manager's name], I'd like to attend Manifest Europe, taking place on 19–21 October 2027 at FIL in Lisbon. It brings together shippers, logistics providers, technology innovators and investors to solve real supply chain challenges, discover new solutions and build partnerships. Here's what I plan to get out of it for [Company]: • Meet shippers, logistics operators and technology providers in one place, and build relationships with potential partners. • Compare the technology and services on offer side by side, saving weeks of separate demos and supplier meetings. Manifest Europe expects 2,500+ attendees, including 500+ shippers and cargo owners, 300+ speakers and 200+ sponsors and exhibitors — so I can cover a lot of ground in three days. After the event, I'll share a short summary of key insights, the solutions worth following up and the contacts I've made, with recommended next steps for the team. I'd appreciate your approval to attend. Happy to talk it through. Best regards, [Your name] [Your job title]
