In mid-September, Long Beach, California becomes the center of the intermodal universe as it hosts EXPO. On The Intermodal Logistics Podcast, we preview this must-attend gathering put on by the Intermodal Association of North America (IANA), with IANA President and CEO Anne Reinke and VP of Member Services Hal Pollard.
Anne and Hal take us through the programming, which includes panels on the state of the industry (trade policy and rail mergers are likely to come up), cargo theft, drug trafficking, AI, business development, and more. They also highlight the Connie Awards, and EXPO's exhibit hall, which features a number of technology and equipment providers as well as activities worth checking out.
On the business side, our guests mention the many networking opportunities both officially included on the program and simply from having so many industry heavy hitters gathered in the same place (a place we'll be podcasting from as well!). We discuss both the opening event: the Academic Challenge (aka the Case Competition), which features student groups from 15 colleges, and the closing speaker, firefighter Royal Ramey who will share his unique story.
Intermodal EXPO takes place Sunday, Sept. 14 through Wednesday, Sept. 17 at the Long Beach Convention Center. Interested in attending? Hal shared a special discount code: Partner25, which takes $100 off registration. Learn more and sign up at www.intermodalexpo.com.
