How the trade show has evolved

Trajectory analysis

SITL is one of the long-standing fixtures of the transport and logistics sector in France. The 2024 edition marked a major editorial repositioning: dropping the "Semaine de l'Innovation du Transport et de la Logistique" name in favour of the historic name "Salon International du Transport et de la Logistique", under a "Métamorphose" dynamic. This repositioning accompanied a return to growth: 25,000 attendees in 2024, then 26,750 in 2025 (+7%), with the trade show targeting 27,000+ for the following editions.

The geographic alternation between Porte de Versailles (odd years) and Villepinte (even years) lets RX France calibrate floor space and avoid cannibalisation with other co-located trade shows. The 2027 edition thus returns to Porte de Versailles, in Hall 1, after the 2026 stint at Villepinte Hall 7. The trade show capitalises on its MySITL matchmaking platform, on the SITL Innovation Awards with their growing application numbers, and on its new areas (Métamorphose Center, Campus) to maintain the momentum of this transformation begun in 2024.
