Three days. Countless decisions. One destination. Join the region's most critical conversation on freight, rail, land transport, and the future of trade.
A $2.3 billion railway connecting Jordan's mines to the Port of Aqaba. Cross-border rail studies linking Jordan to Saudi Arabia and Syria.

Explore the Rail Agenda →Land transport in the region is being redefined — not just for freight, but for people. From cross-border bus networks and regional passenger corridors to smart road freight systems, JIFEX 2026 explores the full spectrum of overland movement. Because when trade routes improve, entire populations benefit.
See the Full Transport Agenda →At the convergence of Asia, Africa, and Europe, Aqaba is more than Jordan's only seaport — it is one of the region's most strategically important logistics gateways. As trade patterns shift and new corridors emerge, Aqaba is uniquely positioned to serve as the region's most reliable and accessible freight hub.
Why Aqaba Matters →
The Kingdom of Jordan sits at a geographic intersection that no infrastructure project can replicate — the natural crossroads of Asia, Africa, and Europe. But geography alone is not the story.
A $2.3 billion freight railway is connecting Jordan's phosphate and potash mines directly to the Port of Aqaba — the first segment of an ambitious Gulf-to-Europe land corridor. Cross-border rail agreements with Saudi Arabia and Syria are advancing. A national railway network spanning 897 kilometers is in planning. Jordan's Ministry of Transport is building the backbone of a logistics state.
For freight forwarders, shipping lines, investors, and policymakers — Jordan in 2026 is not a future opportunity. It is a present-tense decision.
Our inaugural edition brought together the region's most influential logistics decision-makers for three days that redefined what an industry forum in Jordan can be.
