The best event in the business
— Larry Rabinovich, Barclay Damon

“Very impressed with your entire lineup of speakers”

We attend numerous conventions over the year and I must say we were very impressed with your entire lineup of speakers. The topics were current and very educational. We were both amazed at how well everything was planed. Everything ran so smoothy and we especially enjoyed the luncheon where we rotated tables for each course.  It was a great way to meet other attendees. The gong and bell was also a great way to let everyone know it was time to move or take there seat for the next session. We were also very impressed with how attentive and helpful all your staff was.

“Learned a lot while also making many new contacts”

It was an excellent conference that was very well attended and I came away having learned a lot while also making many new contacts.  You and your team clearly worked hard to ensure that every detail went off as well as could be.  I am truly thankful that you found a way to include me and I look forward to attending again in the future.

“GREATNESS”

It was an honour to be around GREATNESS. Everyone at the conference was so like-minded and knowledgeable about the industry. We have NEVER seen anything like it before. One thing we can say for sure is that our company gained great exposure and developed genuine rapport amongst other fellow professionals at the conference.

“I recently had the incredible opportunity to attend the 34th Annual Transportation Conference on Innovation & Cost Savings hosted by Richard Lande. This event was nothing short of awe-inspiring, and I’d like to take a moment to share my experience with you.

There conference took place at Harding Waterfront Estate where a number of professional speakers discussed topics like fleet risk management, supply chains, AI, legal issues and broker liability. Attending the conference was not just an educational experience by also a fantastic networking opportunity. I had the privlege of meeting leading professionals and entrepreneurs who share a passion for transforming the way we move and connect goods around the world.”

“Annual Tradition”

It was an amazing event and we really enjoyed attending. It was a pleasure to meet all of your team and your wife – everyone was super professional and very attentive to any of our needs – they made sure everyone was taken care of and engaged all the guests.

The food was awesome and very very enjoyable.

I thought the rotating lunch was a super smart idea to give everyone the opportunity to meet everyone attending and be able to share their innovations and experience with each other.

The talks were amazing and super insightful – it is truly incredible to me on how fast the industry and its standards are changing since April this year. It was a real treat to be amongst so many professionals – in so many areas of the industry and to take a piece of that experience and apply it to our own business model.

Again Thank you – and I look forward to continue attending and becoming a part this annual tradition.

Kiran Kumari, Jagger Canada
