Sep t. 2 0 -2 4 , 20 0 8 “The Global Enterprise— Transformation & Competition” THE STAKES ARE HIGH Our logistics community faces change and challenge in the air, over ground, and at sea—not just at home, but beyond our borders as well. How do we BALANCE infrastructure needs? How do we maintain our competitive EDGE in the global arena? Can we better utilize RESOURCES to mitigate rising fuel costs? What’s our BEST BET when it comes to ensuring visibility, security, service, and savings for our stakeholders? These are just some of the issues that will be addressed at the 62nd Annual NDTA Forum & Expo! The Stakes may be HIGH in Reno/Tahoe but we’re keeping costs LOW . . . The 2008 Registration Package price remains the same as in 2007! We are doing what we can to offset your travel expenses. We don’t want you to miss out on any of the Programs or Events at this year’s Forum!
