“Anyone who is involved in our segment of the marketplace and does not attend the conference is conspicuous by their absence. There is no other place anywhere to network with all facets of our distribution system, retailers, wholesalers, MGA’s, and company markets along with 16 hours of trucking-specific education.”

our participants said
Research Results from ATRI and the meet and greet session and Supply Chain/Intermodal Operations
I was most excited about seeing so many folks that I haven’t seen in a few years (pre-covid). Otherwise, the ATRI research presentation was one I enjoyed the most.
All the speakers were fantastic and informative.
Networking Learning the complexities of a trucking company
The first session learning from three industry veterans on the state of the transportation market.
The presenters were very knowledgeable about the subjects. I liked the Claim presentation the most as it gave information on how to help avoid the reptilian theory losses.
Each year MCIEF members, Transportation Risk Specialist designees, and other insurance and risk management professionals interested in the transportation industry will have the opportunity to attend and participate in the MCIEF Annual Conference.
