International Highlights

by Guido Rietti | September 2022

BlueCrest presents at the first Asia Pacific Postal Union in 4 years. Attended by dozens of Postal organizations and sponsors from the Asia Pacific region, the 9th APPU conference was the first event held in 4 years, and a welcome opportunity for postal organisations from across the region to network amongst themselves, share experiences and learnings from the past 2 years and discuss how each are facing up to challenges driven by changing markets, increased competition from private carriers and cross border tracking, tracing and delivery. BlueCrest, represented by Guido Rietti and JP Thorpe was able to position the BlueCrest product and services portfolio as a key enabler to the automation challenges all of these national posts are facing, with JP taking the stand to present and field questions.

The event also provided us with the opportunity to reconnect with key decision makers in posts with whom we have had projects held up due to Covid, all of which are being re-started and should restart selection processes in the next 6-18 months (the speed of National Posts!)

In September

by Sir Charles George Douglas Roberts

This windy, bright September afternoon My heart is wide awake, yet full of dreams. The air, alive with hushed confusion, teems With scent of grain-fields, and a mystic rune,

Foreboding of the fall of Summer soon, Keeps swelling and subsiding, till there seems O’er all the world of valleys, hills, and streams, Only the wind’s inexplicable tune.
