2026 Event Agenda Sessions
Across the United States and the European Union, inland ports and terminals are open for business and ready to move your cargo. Thousands of inland facilities provide seamless river, road, and rail connections for transloading, storage, transportation, and logistics solutions, extending supply chains beyond the deep-draft port through a powerful inland network.
From bulk commodities to breakbulk and project cargo, inland transportation offers a safer, greener, and more cost-effective way to move freight while reducing congestion, emissions, and supply chain risk. Shippers, project owners, freight forwarders, and logistics leaders will gain insight into how inland ports and private terminals deliver smarter, stronger, and more resilient transportation solutions.
