SUCCESSFUL RELATIONSHIPS ARE BUILT ON TRUST. IN A CHANGING WORLD,
Global Fleet Conference 2018: Sharing means winning
The Global Fleet Conference aims to offer you a forum with three main purposes: to learn about the hot topics in multinational fleet management, to share your experiences and learn from those of your peers; and to network with industry leaders and business partners from all over the world. Success in managing global fleets requires that you stay up to date with the latest trends, and know all there is to know about high-value best practices in the international fleet and mobility management ecosystem. That’s what the Global Fleet Conference is all about. But there’s more: this unique event will give you the opportunity to benchmark your current strategy and give you tools to make your programme future-proof. We’re pleased to present you with an engaging conference in which case study presentations alternate with expert insight and industry leadership. This year’s programme is built around 7 sessions, each with a thought-provoking theme: The impact of Economic and Geopolitical trends on International Business; Winning Strategies in Global Fleet Management; Green Fleet Management; Targeting zero accidents with Safety Management; Embracing Innovation to optimise Global Fleet Management; The Transformation from Fleet to Mobility; and finally Regional Focus (zooming in on trends in the US and in the European marketplace, in Asia-Pacific, and in Latin America). The Global Fleet Conference will once again bring together multinational fleet managers, experts, suppliers and sectoral organisations, strengthening the global fleet community by exchanging knowledge and experience. Its success depends on your enthusiasm to learn and to share. Sharing means winning!

They will cover a series of regional expert topics including benefits of connectivity and data and how it is changing transportation and businesses, the barriers and limitations, the policies, standards and protocols that are available or lacking. They will also discuss why data needs to be open, neutral and secure. The expert panel will also discuss topics for Global Fleet Managers. How do you ensure compliance and policy globally? How do you protect privacy and cybersecurity? What challenges are Global Fleet Managers faced with? What do they need for the future? The discussions will be followed up from a fleet manager’s perspective and a Q&A session with the audience.

In this race towards ready-to-use solutions, Omoove is leading the way within the Self Service Technology Solutions, offering a cutting-edge approach to meet new needs and requirements. Let’s discover together the new solutions and key enabling technologies that Omoove is offering for the world of the Fleet Management and Vehicle Sharing.
Room Visconti THE ADDED VALUE OF SOFTWARE AND SYSTEMS As the industry goes through an unprecedented period of transformation, lease companies, OEMs, captives and rental companies are adjusting their strategies and transforming their business. To meet the needs of tomorrow’s customers whilst staying ahead of (or catching up with) disruptors will require more than a solid strategy based on a clear vision. As your product offering evolves to cover the full spectrum of contracted vehicle usage (financing, leasing, renting and sharing as well as non-vehicle based mobility products), the added value generated by a system that can manage your entire business efficiently on one platform becomes a strategic advantage.
