Webinar: Supply Chain and Automated Freight in Canada – Sponsored by: CAVCOE & Praxiem

Date/Time
Date - Oct 5, 2022
1:00 pm EDT - 2:30 pm EDT

With the unprecedented supply chain disruptions caused by a pandemic and war, our supply chains face new realities and challenges to do things differently. Can we leverage the promise of connected and autonomous vehicles for Automated Freight to overcome supply chain problems, and how? Will Automated Freight be the first of the Automated Transportation subsegments to roll out at scale by addressing this real-world problem, paving the way for later Passenger Autonomous Transportation adoption?

Join us to learn about Canadian and global initiatives in Automated Freight transportation and why and how we can progress with it to move cargo to and from our ports, city to city, and the last mile. Hear industry and government speakers’ presentations and a panel discussion on actualizing Automated Freight’s full potential and benefits for Canada. This is also your opportunity to ask questions and offer input toward solutions.
