Global Fleet Conference 2018 in Rome

This year’s high-level two-day Global Fleet conference in the Eternal City of Rome in May will examine the very latest issues in global fleet management and present an indepth look at two intriguing and up-and-coming regions: Latin America and Asia Pacific.

The 2018 Global Fleet Conference is being held on May 28-30 at the sumptuous Sheraton Hotel and Conference Center, ideally located in the monumental EUR (Esposizione Universale di Roma) Business District, between Rome’s historic center and Fiumicino Airport.

This year’s event is again expected to attract an audience of several hundred international fleet decision-makers from all six continents across the globe, and will tackle a host of key fleet issues including:

• How the global economy will affect your fleet
• Keys for creating global fleet success
• Setting up the right global fleet team and the communication process
• Cleaning and ‘greening’ the fleet
• Embracing innovation to optimise global fleet management
• Global trends in safety management
• Mobility management across the globe.

Delegates will be able to benefit from in-depth presentations, case studies and panel discussions by fleet industry heavyweights and experts, while also getting involved in interactive question and answer sessions. 

The event is again being organised by GlobalFleet.com, the Executive Network, in conjunction with stablemate Fleet Europe and US publication, Automotive Fleet, and will look to address a whole host of issues of major interest for global fleet managers over the two days.

On day two, the day’s opening session will consider how to innovate to optimise global fleet management, as well as tackling the thorny issue of data privacy and the introduction and impact of the forthcoming EU General Data Protection Regulation.

The final morning session will look at mobility management and assess new mobility initiatives from a global perspective, while a panel discussion will consider mobility management across the globe.

After a networking lunch, the final afternoon will consist of breakout sessions to consider the fleet management outlook in two regions: Latin America and Asia Pacific. Parallel sessions will consider how a global fleet management approach can align with each region’s specific characteristics to make the most out of these promising but difficult markets.

The two day conference will be prefaced by a session of the Global Fleet Advisory Board and a meeting of the Global Fleet Managers Club on Monday, May 28, followed by a welcome cocktail reception for delegates.

On the middle evening, Tuesday, May 29, the official Global Fleet Conference dinner takes place from 19.00 to 22.30, while the event formally draws to a close on Wednesday, May 30, at around 16.30pm.

Caroline Thonnon, Global Fleet CEO and Head of Business Development, said: “The 2018 Global Fleet Conference in Rome in May will provide international fleet decision-makers with the gilt-edged opportunity to get to the very heart of some of the burning topics in global fleet management. “It will also provide the opportunity to discuss best practice, network with peers, share experiences and take away vital information based on real fleet management successes.
