As we step into 2026, it’s a natural moment to reflect on how far 4NEXT Global has come, while also looking ahead to what’s next for our growing international logistics community.
Last year was a defining one for the network. Not just in terms of member growth, but in how we learned, connected and evolved together as a truly global logistics platform.
Growth, learning and momentum in 2025
Throughout the past year, 4NEXT Global saw strong growth in membership, welcoming new freight forwarders and logistics professionals from across multiple regions. With every new member came fresh expertise, new trade lanes and valuable perspectives that strengthened the collective power of the network.
Equally important was what we learned as a community. We saw first-hand how open collaboration leads to better outcomes, how trust is built through consistent interaction, and how shared challenges across the industry can often be solved faster when approached together.
One of the biggest milestones for the network was our first-ever face-to-face Founders’ Event in Çeşme. Bringing members together in person added a new dimension to relationships that had already been developing digitally. Conversations became deeper, partnerships moved faster and the sense of belonging within the network became even stronger.
Alongside this, our digital meetings played a vital role in keeping momentum high throughout the year. Regular virtual touchpoints ensured members stayed connected regardless of location, enabling introductions, updates and opportunity sharing to happen consistently and efficiently.
One of the key takeaways from last year was the importance of balance. Face-to-face events create lasting impressions and strong personal connections, while digital meetings keep the network active, accessible and responsive throughout the year.
This blended approach will remain central to how 4NEXT Global operates in 2026. It allows members to stay engaged without barriers, while still benefiting from the unique value that in-person networking brings.
Looking ahead to 2026
As we move through 2026, the focus is firmly on building momentum and expanding opportunity across the network.
Digitally, our monthly virtual meetings will continue as a core part of the 4NEXT calendar. These sessions bring all active members together regularly, creating space for updates, collaboration, introductions and insight-sharing across markets and regions. The next upcoming 4NEXT virtual members meeting is already scheduled for 29th January 2026, and we’re looking forward to catching up with all of the current members.
Planning is already underway for the next face-to-face 4NEXT Global event. While details are still under wraps, members can expect another carefully curated experience designed to encourage meaningful conversations, strategic partnerships and real business development. Watch this space.
We’ll also be continuing our presence at key industry events throughout the year. Attending logistics and freight-forwarding exhibitions, conferences and site visits allows us to stay closely connected to industry developments, spot emerging trends and bring fresh ideas back into the network for the benefit of all members.
Growing the network & strengthening the platform
Another major priority for 2026 is continued network growth. We’re consistently and actively looking to welcome more high-quality industry professionals into 4NEXT Global, ensuring that every new member adds expertise, value and strengthens our collective ecosystem.
At the same time, we remain committed to evolving the 4NEXT members platform. Feedback from members already using the platform to generate global opportunities plays a crucial role in how it develops. Enhancements, refinements and new features will continue to be introduced based on real-world usage, ensuring the platform supports collaboration in practical, commercially meaningful ways.
Looking forward together
2026 is shaping up to be a year of progress, connection and opportunity for 4NEXT Global. With a growing membership base, a strong mix of face-to-face and digital engagement, continued industry involvement and a platform built around member input, the network is well positioned for the year ahead.
As always, our focus remains the same: creating an environment where logistics professionals can connect with confidence, collaborate globally and grow together.
