About the Event
Program Overview
The Technology Executive Exchange is an invitation-only, half-day executive session for Alberta transportation and logistics leaders focused on identifying business challenges, exploring technology adoption opportunities, and strengthening investment decision-making.
The Exchange brings together senior industry leaders for a candid, vendor-neutral discussion on:
- Priority business challenges and opportunities for improvement
- Potential applications of technology, including AI and generative AI

- Criteria for evaluating investments and measuring business value
Held on November 18, 2026, from 8:30 AM to 12:00 PM, the Exchange is a facilitated, 3.5-hour peer discussion emphasizing shared experiences and practical insights rather than technology demonstrations or sales presentations.

Why This Matters Now
As AI, automation, and digital technologies evolve, Alberta's transportation and logistics companies face growing pressure to modernize while ensuring investments deliver measurable value. Making informed decisions requires more than access to technology; it requires a clear understanding of business priorities, implementation challenges, and organizational capacity.
Insights from the Exchange will help the Alberta Logistics Centre of Excellence identify industry needs and inform future executive learning, technical support, and applied programming.
