Want to know what fleet management conferences are coming around the bend in 2023? Weāve listed them out in chronological order for your convenience, and weāll keep them updated with any changes throughout the year.
2023 marks the first year since 2020 where nearly all of the biggest fleet management conferences are back in person, and the impact of face-to-face networking has been felt pretty deeply across the industry.
"We went through the pandemic, and it was really hard, because so many of us are used to seeing people in person and having events," said Nichole Osinski, executive editor at Bobit. "So itās a great time to really just reconvene and talk to people and say, āHi, howās everything going.ā Because I can have a phone call or send an email, but nothingās the same as being in-person and really talking to somebody."
Bobit organizes the Government Fleet Expo, the largest annual conference for public fleets, and Osinski said that conference attendees can expect to see a lot more engagement at this yearās lineup of conferences than in the past couple of years.
Letās check out what 2023 has in store for fleet conferences.
