Leading fleets identify most pressing issues for Fleet & Mobility Live seminar content (video)

The major issues and long-term challenges of moving people and goods around will be addressed at this year’s Fleet & Mobility Live.

Content for a series of best practice and strategy sessions at this year’s free-to-attend event has been developed by the two-day event’s visitor advisory board (VAB) which is made up of HR and fleet professionals (see below), whose fleets range from fewer than 100 vehicles to more than 1,000.

The Fleet & Mobility Live board regular meet with the Fleet News team to identify the most pressing issues facing fleet and mobility professionals today.

Seminar content for panel discussions and presentations will appeal to fleet managers, travel/mobility managers, procurement, finance or HR and will help support the development of skills and talent throughout fleet.

The panel meets every two months with the Fleet News team to discuss new ideas and agree on the core content driving the best practice and strategy sessions.

The UK’s leading event for fleets will take place at the NEC, Birmingham, on October 8 and 9.

Fleet & Mobility Live provides a unique opportunity to engage and connect with the fleet community. It helps facilitate access to the best knowledge, learning and peer groups across the industry, helping the fleet sector to learn, connect and discover new ways to improve their business operations.

This year the event will have three theatres delivering best-in-class content:

Fleet Fundamentals Theatre: this will look at some of the everyday basics of running a fleet, such as safety, compliance and electrification. 

Strategy & Leadership Theatre: Focusing on areas of the sector having the greatest effect on the way fleets operate, offering advice and insight to give fleet decision-makers the confidence to make the right decisions and form the best strategies.

Fleet Matrix Theatre: Aimed at HR, finance and procurement professionals, sessions in this theatre will recognise that fleet responsibilities can be part of other departments across an organisation.

Other show attractions will include a micromobility zone, local authority hub, Association of Fleet Professionals hub and much more!

The ECV Café will also be at the show offering tips and advice on making the switch to zero emissions vehicles.
