FTR Transportation Conference

Given the growing concerns around COVID-19, we’ve made the difficult decision to cancel the 2021 FTR Transportation Conference to ensure the continued health and safety of all those who had planned to be in attendance with us.

This was a tough call to make – the annual conference is an incredibly important event for FTR and it’s one of our favorite ways to share content and discuss evolving trends -- but we need to prioritize the health and safety of everyone who makes the event so impactful.

Eric Starks, FTR Chairman and CEO

Testimonials

FTR’s conference was unlike most transportation conferences I’ve attended. This conference is grounded in data and is tailored for those needing, generating, or analyzing data to improve the business.

I would say that the annual FTR conference is THE event for learning more about the state of the transportation industry and what is around the corner while meeting some new and old friends. The FTR crew do a great job of keeping you engaged and entertained while providing valuable insight into your business.

The speakers brought from various industries and backgrounds provides a wide perspective on what is happening in the transportation industry and information on current events that affect the industry as a whole.

This was my first year attending the conference. From a content standpoint, this was the most informative conference that I’ve ever attended. If a fraction of the networking meeting that I had pan out, it’s a potential gold mine.
