The Worldwide Challenge
DHL Fast Forward
Discover the world of logistics and prove your management skills with DHL Fast Forward - the first worldwide logistics business simulation. Take a seat in the Chairperson's office of a logistics company and aim for becoming world market leader!
DHL Fast Forward plays in three levels. The First Level of the 2008 competition is already completed: players were challenged to develop a small provider of express services into a national champion. In the Main Level, the First Level's top players compete in three different areas of logistics services, namely forwarding, express, and supply chain services. They are playing in teams of five players that are put together from countries all around the globe. Effective intercultural communication is definitely one of the key skills here...
In the Final Level, the most successful teams will have the opportunity to establish contact with top managers at Deutsche Post World Net - the sixth-largest private employer in the world. Moreover, the finalists can win attractive prizes with a total value of more than 50,000 Euros.
Whatever happens in DHL Fast Forward - we will keep you updated on this website.
Main Level finished!
100 international teams
have been managing their globally operating logistics companies for seven challenging years.
Some markets experienced intense price wars as companies competed to acquire as much market share as possible - but many companies have survived through these ordeals and continue to fight their way to the top in order to become the ultimate market leaders.
So far, 10 teams have proven to be the best in their market and will proceed to the much sought-after Final Level! The "Final Level" will be a real-life competition taking place in Berlin and Bonn, Germany, with the possibility to win prizes worth over 50,000 Euros!
For all who did not have the chance to participate or did not manage to qualify as one of the 10 best teams in our current event, you will have the chance to prove your management skills in the upcoming DHL Fast Forward Competition 2009!
So don't miss out on the excitement when the world-wide challenge continues!
P.S. More details about the competition 2009 will be soon published on this website. To keep yourself up-to-date, register for the DHL Discover Logistics newsletter on our Gateway at:
