World Mail & Express Asia Conference This year’s WMX Asia Conference was held in the northern part of Hong Kong, Kowloon, known for its shopping, arts and entertainment!  Despite Typhoon Mangkhut making an appearance and causing disruption across Asia, the conference went ahead uninterrupted as scheduled. The popular three-day conference with its host of seminars and networking sessions provided the perfect opportunity for our CEO, Lee Bucktrout and Sales Director, Paul Moring to meet with our network of international suppliers and customers, as well as network with new potential. Lee Bucktrout, CEO commented “As usual Triangle events are well organised and Hong Kong was no different! With a good selection of seminars and networking opportunities to take advantage of, UKPW has come away with some new exciting opportunities and ideas, which we are actively following up.” We are already well advanced in planning our next conference in Miami, which has become a regular event in our international marketing calendar. With destination USA as our core field of expertise for both postal and parcel solutions, it is an obvious choice of venue to make new acquaintances.
