Conecta Logística

What Conecta Logística does

Conecta Logística is a Chilean non-profit foundation (Fundación Conecta Logística) headquartered in Las Condes, Santiago, that operates as a neutral multi-stakeholder coordination platform advancing Chile's logistics competitiveness. It convenes over 50 affiliated institutions spanning the private sector (logistics operators, ports, retailers, energy companies), public sector (Ministry of Transport and Telecommunications, CORFO, SENCE, ANID), and academia (Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile, Universidad Andrés Bello, Universidad de Concepción). Its core offerings include the Observatorio Logístico — Chile's most comprehensive open logistics data hub — alongside analytical products (Barómetro de la Logística de Comercio Exterior, Radar Logístico de Chile, ECEE port emissions survey), operational platforms (LOAD urban delivery maps with AI, Plataforma Colaborativa de Incidencias, VUMAR maritime single-window), sustainability programs (Electrologística, Experiencia Logística Intermodal), and human capital initiatives (Aprende Logística, Más Mujeres Conductoras, Premio Nacional de Logística).

The foundation generates revenue through affiliation and membership fees from its 50+ affiliated institutions plus institutional funding from government agencies (primarily CORFO and MTT) for specific programs and initiatives. Its distribution is fully domestic — Chile only — with delivery of public goods (data platforms, educational content, programs, collaborative frameworks) provided free of charge through digital ecosystems and in-person events. The go-to-market motion is community-led, driven by the value of participating in Chile's premier logistics coordination body through working groups, events, and knowledge-sharing platforms. AI is embedded in select platforms (LOAD for urban delivery optimization, Plataforma Colaborativa de Incidencias for pattern detection) but is not the foundation's primary differentiator; the core moat is convening power, data aggregation, and quasi-regulatory positioning.

Product overview

Conecta Logística is a Chilean non-profit foundation (Fundación) that positions itself as a coordination platform connecting the public sector, private industry, and academia to advance Chile's logistics performance globally. Its offering is organized as a multi-initiative ecosystem rather than a single unified software product. At its core, the platform aggregates and publishes logistics data through the Observatory Logístico, supplemented by analytical products like the Barómetro de la Logística and the Radar Logístico de Chile. Operational tools include the LOAD urban delivery maps (with AI), the Plataforma Colaborativa de Incidencias (with Drivin), the Smart Parking pilot (with TIMIX), VUMAR, and SITCOMEX. The portfolio also encompasses sustainability initiatives (Electrologística, Experiencia Logística Intermodal, ECEE port survey), human capital programs (Aprende Logística, Charlas en la Academia, Premio Estudiantes Destacados, Más Mujeres Conductoras, Sello Explora Logística), awards (Premio Nacional de Logística, Sello Agente de Cambio), events (Encuentro de Líderes, Encuentro Academia-Industria, Datathon), international missions, and strategic guides on technology adoption and communal logistics governance.

Scale indicators5 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Regional players

• European Logistics Association (ELA): Umbrella federation of 30+ European national logistics associations. Comparable as a multi-stakeholder logistics convening body focused on standards, education, and policy advocacy, though operating at continental scale.
• ALALOG (Asociación Latinoamericana de Logística): Latin American logistics association promoting regional collaboration, education, and standards. Comparable as a multi-country logistics convening body, but its regional scope contrasts with Conecta Log\u00edstica's Chile-only focus.
• Logistics UK: United Kingdom\u2019s leading logistics trade association representing logistics businesses across road, rail, sea, and air. Comparable business model (membership-funded advocacy, research, and industry events) but operates in a more mature UK logistics market.

Direct peers

• Council of Supply Chain Management Professionals (CSCMP): Global professional association for supply chain and logistics practitioners, offering research, education, networking, and thought leadership. Directly comparable to Conecta Log\u00edstica in role and value proposition (membership-funded multi-stakeholder platform advancing the logistics profession), though operating at global scale.
• ANAC A.G. (Asociación Nacional de Automóviles Comerciales): Chilean association of commercial vehicle operators, an affiliated member and partner of Conecta Log\u00edstica. Comparable as a national logistics trade body in the same market with overlapping practitioner audience and policy-advocacy mission.
• Supply Chain Council Chile: Chilean supply chain industry body that co-organizes the Charlas en la Academia initiative with Conecta Log\u00edstica. Comparable as a national logistics/supply chain member association operating in the same Chilean market and overlapping audience of corporate practitioners.

Emerging players

• Smart Freight Centre: International non-profit focused on reducing emissions from freight transport through measurement, reporting, and industry collaboration. Comparable to Conecta Log\u00edstica's Electrolog\u00edstica and ECEE port emissions work, but globally scoped and sustainability-only rather than whole-sector.

Broad incumbents

• OECD International Transport Forum (ITF): Intergovernmental policy think tank for transport across 64 member countries, producing flagship reports such as the ITF Transport Outlook. Comparable in its role producing authoritative logistics/transport intelligence and convening public-private dialogue, though operating at policy-level rather than operational.
