But education at the CD/NLA Show isn’t limited to the classroom. On Monday at 12:15, we’re pleased to announce the return of our State of the Industry, courtesy of sponsor Driving Transactions. This always-packed event offers a range of perspectives as to what’s trending in the industry and where there’s opportunity. This year, we’re kicking it off with Driving Transactions Principal Business Analyst Ken Lucci, who will share timely wisdom based on hundreds of hours of data collection and research.

“This is our third year sponsoring the State of the Industry session and we are thrilled to highlight current data we have collected and researched on the state of travel and passenger transportation, including the effects of the current economy, tariffs, growth in airport travel and other travel sectors, as well as coming opportunities in autonomous vehicles,” says Lucci.
Then, you’re invited to join CD President Chris Weiss as he moderates a panel of industry all-stars. This year, we’re pleased to present a terrific trio that includes Tim Rose, president of Hoffmann Transportation Group; John Ferrari, president/CEO of TBL Group; and Tami Rutter, director of operations and global affiliate relations for Commonwealth Worldwide. With each panelist having more than 25 years of success in the industry, and representing major markets spanning the country, you can bet this will be an informative and entertaining session that will appeal to all operators.
“I’m proud to call each of these industry leaders a decades-long friend, and their breadth of knowledge and experience—as well as their engaging and synergistic personalities—will make our State of the Industry truly dynamic,” says Weiss. “This is the first time in many years that we have only three panelists, which will allow for more in-depth answers and, with each company having a large footprint, different perspectives. This is a rare opportunity for our attendees to get insight from those who have helped to shape and drive the industry forward.”
