Make Valuable Connections - Exclusive to Members
We know one of the top reasons our Members attend in-person events is to network with others in the room. To ensure you still have this opportunity, a limited number of GVBOT Members will be able to participate in a virtual networking session. You will have an opportunity to show your interest in the networking portion when you register. Access will be offered on a first come first serve basis.
Transportation Forum 2020 presented by Deloitte is moving to a virtual platform as we feel it is vital to continue these important conversations.
The forum, divided into three sessions over three days, will focus on the forces shaping the future of our transportation systems.Each session will also look at how COVID-19 has impacted transportation and what businesses can do to successfully navigate these changes.
The sessions will feature speakers from industry and government focusing on the following topics:
- June 1: The future of mobility: Disruption and the global evolution of transportation systems
- June 3: The Road to Recovery for the Gateway Sector
- June 5: Addressing Regional Transportation Issues
You can choose to purchase a bundle package and attend all three sessions or simply attend the session that is most relevant to you.
