COUNTDOWN TO 2011 ANNUAL MEETING & EXPO
Check Out the Showcases

Transit Technology Showcases right on the EXPO floor will provide added value for exhibitors and visitors alike. EXPO exhibitors conduct these quality educational sessions—covering technical, management, and operations issues—that present the latest technology innovations to provide solutions addressing the needs of the public transit industry.

In addition, the EXPO will host international showcases designed to educate visitors about the latest public transportation developments and business opportunities in other countries. Guest speakers from the U.S. Commercial Service and transportation authorities from countries including Mexico, Brazil, China, and India will conduct presentations highlighting current and future development plans of interest to U.S. companies wishing to export their products and services.


Bridging the Gap: The Next Generation
Continuing APTA’s mission of encouraging student involvement in its conferences and meetings, EXPO 2011 offers a unique opportunity for students to network and interact with a variety of professionals within the industry.

The “EXPO High School” program—sponsored by AECOM, Veolia Transportation, and ACE Mentor Program of America in partnership with APTA and Junior Achievement—is a student outreach initiative with the goal of teaching 75 New Orleans-area students how to make career and life decisions. This special activity is a unique chance to promote careers in public transportation and engineering.

This initiative also provides an opportunity for APTA member organizations to network with and market to a new generation interested in careers within the public transit industry.
