Ted Prince, CEO & Founder, Tri-Cities Intermodal, will explain how intermodal has evolved throughout time by incorporating history, economics, and policy. This “what is intermodal?” discussion will cover such topics as: the growth of international containerization; how domestic intermodal has continued to change; and the changing infrastructure. These topics will be considered within the broader contexts of intermodal’s relative competitiveness to other modes. Ted is an internationally recognized teacher on intermodal transportation. This session is open to both IANA members and non-members.

As electrification takes center stage in the movement toward sustainable supply chains, ports emerge as pivotal locations for integrating electric trucks and charging infrastructure. This webinar will explore the commercial factors that make ports attractive for electrification, the integration of charging depots into traditional goods movement and short-haul operations, and the collaborative efforts needed to drive the transition to zero-emission transportation. Participants will gain insights into how ports connect diverse stakeholders across the supply chain and the importance of collaboration for successful electrification. We will discuss Zeem’s innovative approach to establishing strategically located charging depots and working with key partners to support efficient logistics while prioritizing the driver experience. The webinar will discuss ways to streamline the transition for the drayage community and encourage acceptance of electric vehicles within the supply chain to collectively meet regulatory requirements and sustainability objectives.

Webinar Objectives:
1. Examine the commercial factors that make ports ideal locations for electrification initiatives.
2. Discuss strategies for engaging stakeholders across the supply chain and electric vehicle industry to generate collective support for the transition to electric drayage
3. Highlight innovative solutions for integrating electric drayage truck charging into existing operations, including site selection, infrastructure compatibility, vehicle procurement, and commercial traction.
4. Educate stakeholders on the benefits and challenges of electric trucks and charging infrastructure, aiming to increase acceptance and promote the adoption of zero-emission vehicles within the supply chain
