North Container Summit 2025: A True Breakthrough for the Baltic Logistics Scene
As the founder and CEO of Conway Container Solutions, I can say with full confidence — the North Container Summit 2025 was a real triumph.
We spent 8 intense months preparing, and the result was beyond what we imagined: over 240 participants from 15 countries, including top global leasing companies, ports, shipping lines, railway operators, terminals, and freight forwarders.

Day 1: Industry Insights and Port Experience
The first day was all about immersion.
We started with a hands-on excursion hosted by Baltic Container Terminal and the Freeport of Riga, where guests got an exclusive look at real-time terminal operations and container handling at scale. Huge thanks to the port team for organizing boat transfers, each carrying over 100 guests, across the historic waters of Riga.
Afterward, we gathered at the rooftop of Riga’s central district, where welcome drinks and relaxed networking set the tone. The atmosphere was electric — conversations flowed between operators, tech innovators, and maritime executives.

Day 2: The Main Conference
Day 2 was the summit’s beating heart — hosted at the iconic Hanzas Perons, a former train warehouse turned modern venue.
From the very first speech to the final panel, the energy was high. We covered:
- China–Europe container trade
- Terminal innovation and port infrastructure
- Intermodal rail developments
- Sustainability and the EU Green Deal
The Business Speed Dating session became an unexpected highlight: 100+ connections made in under 90 minutes.
Our speakers and moderators kept the rhythm sharp and impactful, and I’ve never seen so many post-panel discussions continue straight into coffee breaks and beyond.
What People Are Saying
- “Exceeded all expectations”
- “Incredible networking, more than 50 meetings in two days”
- “Professionally organized with real character and style”
- “The most important regional event in years”
Even those who couldn’t attend in person reached out with congratulations.
A Big Thank You
To our partners and sponsors, your support helped make this a summit to remember.
As a token of our gratitude — and to mark the fact that the IIHF Ice Hockey World Championship was taking place during the summit — we gifted each of our partners a personalized photo featuring a hockey jersey with their name. A small gesture that brought big smiles and celebrated the spirit of unity and collaboration.
And now, the next chapter begins:
See You in Vilnius in 2026!
Let’s make the next one even bigger, even bolder, and just as unforgettable.
