While much of the world slowed to a halt in the first half of 2020, the nation’s fleet operators remained busier than ever—from local delivery, to last mile, residential waste collection, utility fleets, and more. As demands for transportation services continue to increase, fleet executives need timely access to products, services, and contacts that can help them achieve their economic and environmental sustainability goals.

The organizers of North America’s largest advanced transportation event, ACT Expo, have launched a new event experience to bring this critical industry education and networking to fleets wherever they are digitally connected. The new online event series, ACT Virtual, will feature 19 days of unique programming from August through November on the trends, policies, and technologies driving the future of fleet transportation.

Gain Valuable Product & Market Insight

Fleets can get timely updates on drivetrain electrification, renewable fuels, autonomous and connected technologies, fuel efficiency, and much more. ACT Virtual was designed in partnership with a large fleet advisory committee to ensure the event topics, format and frequency will appeal to the needs, interests, and availability of today’s busy transportation executives.

Attendees can select from five different advanced transportation modules, which each include multiple days of curated educational sessions.

Make New Business Connections

While ACT Virtual is 100 percent online, attendees will not miss the level of connection experienced at in-person events. The series offers multiple opportunities to interact with presenters and other attendees through one-on-one chats, small-group video discussions, and access to a full attendee directory. And because there will be zero travel costs, attendees will have the opportunity to connect with a diverse set of transportation stakeholders across North America and around the globe.

In the Virtual Exhibit Hall attendees can participate in fleet technology demonstrations, connect with leading solutions providers, download product brochures, attend press conferences, and more.
