Intermodal Expo

Intermodal EXPO 2025 Schedule of Events. More announcements coming soon.

IANA invites representatives from our member companies and experts from the industry to present during the Concurrent Sessions at our 2025 Intermodal EXPO, September 15-17 in Long Beach, California. We seek dynamic and engaging speakers and encourage submissions that provide practical takeaways. Submissions are due by May 15. More information is available in the online submission form.

Proposals that feature tools, products, or services available for purchase by attendees are not appropriate to submit through this proposal process. We will have a separate submission this summer for on-floor product/service-specific presentations from our exhibitors.
