Convening for Action

Freight Forum IntelliConferences® enable stakeholders to create multi-dimensional solutions for today’s most pressing transportation and supply chain issues.

Why is this Needed?

Our supply chains are unorganized. The truth is, neither marketplace dynamics nor vested interest lobbying lead to smart supply chains. For North America’s future prosperity, they must be reconceived with a long-term vision.

The problem is not a lack of intelligence—there are so many smart, committed people in industry, government, and the community. What we have been lacking are the effective forums and methods for gathering that intelligence into smart policy, programs, and marketplace improvements.

How does the Freight Forum work?

A facilitated, inquiry-based dialogue called IntelliConference® brings stakeholders together with diverse perspectives. The IntelliConference® design protects the integrity of the group dialogue process. No vested interest can dominate the interactions. All participants have an equal voice, which can only be enhanced by the logic and efficacy of one’s contribution to the dialogue.

What will be discussed and when?

The North American Freight Forum will provide its collaborative method for issues that currently inhibit efficiency and sustainability in the movement of freight on the North American continent.
