Microlise held its Annual Transport Conference at the East Midlands Conference Centre on May 14 2013. Hosted by Quentin Willson, over 400 delegates heard from a number of leading industry figures about how they are bringing best practice to their transport and logistics operations. The full day event was broken down into a number of themes; reducing fuel usage, costs & emissions, improving health and safety and the enhancing customer service.

Key note speakers came from a range of industry sectors and membership and compliance bodies and covered a variety of topics. Speakers shared their thoughts, predictions and experiences with the audience at the conference and in many cases, made themselves available for questions in the exhibition area during interludes.

Bob Harbey, the director at Microlise responsible for the event, said: "We are delighted with the success of this year’s event, we have almost doubled the number of attendees from last year’s conference. It is testimony to Microlise and our customers that so many people were happy to stand up and tell people about how they are using Microlise technology, coupled with good organisation and processes, to improve their transport operations performance. I would really like to thank all our guest speakers for their fantastic contribution, as well as convey our gratitude to all of the delegates who made the effort to attend."
