HOW ARE CARRIERS MANAGING CAPACITY, NAVIGATING SECURITY PROTOCOLS, AND WORKING BETTER WITH GOVERNMENT?

The booming global economy is requiring Canada’s multi-modal transportation industry to move more goods, at lower prices, in shorter times — all within an increasingly safety/security conscious environment. Are Canada’s carriers positioned to capitalize on the tremendous opportunities presented by growing trade? Does Canada’s transportation system have the capacity, strategy, and agility to respond?

Where are the answers? Your first step — this conference…

CARRIERS…EXPLORE THE DRIVERS OF DEMAND — ANTICIPATE GROWTH AND BUILD COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE

Carriers are facing competition from all directions. Continued profitability requires insight and understanding into the needs of transportation buyers. What transportation services will Canadian shippers be demanding in the future? What factors will shape their transportation buying decisions? This conference will deliver the insider knowledge needed to move your business ahead with confidence.

GOVERNMENT… BUILD YOUR PROFILE AND BECOME A STRATEGIC PARTNER TO CANADIAN INDUSTRY

Federal and provincial transportation, infrastructure, and economic development officials — hear from transportation stakeholders from across Canada and leave with the industry insight you need to drive progressive public policy and improve Canada’s competitiveness and prosperity. Build your profile and become a strategic transportation partner to the Canadian transportation industry.

HEAR FROM LEADING SHIPPERS ON WHAT THEY ARE LOOKING FOR FROM CARRIERS AND GOVERNMENT

We have put together an industry A-list of presenters representing shippers and associations — the decision makers and players in Canada’s transportation industries. Only at a gathering of this caliber can you get the real market insight required to succeed from groups such as INCO, Falconbridge, Canadian Industrial Transportation Association, Unilever Canada, and Neptune Bulk Terminals Inc.

INTEGRATE SECURITY SEAMLESSLY INTO OPERATIONS — CAPITALIZE ON SMART TECHNOLOGIES AND ANTICIPATE NEW BORDER PROGRAMS

Increased demands on transportation carriers in this security-enhanced world are a reality. Don’t let these changes become an obstacle; learn what programs and technologies exist to enhance the security of Canadian trade.
