ANNUAL MEETING & EXPOSITION

The Intelligent Transportation Society of America invites you to join thousands of transportation, technology, and other business professionals in National Harbor, Maryland—in the Washington, DC metropolitan area—from June 1-3, 2009 for ITS America’s 2009 Annual Meeting and Exposition. It is this year’s most important opportunity for you to reach key transportation influencers and decision makers for your products and services as a sponsor or exhibitor. It is also very timely considering the efforts underway on Capitol Hill to craft the next surface transportation bill—legislation that is likely to not only significantly impact ITS, but also the future of our nation’s surface transportation system. We are also excited to have the opportunity to work with congress and the new administration on legislation addressing issues like climate change, energy, and security. Advancing ITS deployment, operations, research and demonstration programs in the next transportation bill and other key legislation is critical to the success of the ITS industry and its partners. With your Annual Meeting and Exposition participation, 2009 can be an unparalleled success in furthering the research, development, and broad deployment of ITS solutions across the nation. ITS America’s Annual Meeting exhibitors and sponsors accelerate sales, improve bottom lines, and increase brand awareness by: • Gaining access to 2,000 executives and leaders who are responsible for bringing in business and finding solutions to their infrastructure challenges • Cultivating new and exciting business partnerships face-to-face • Building leads and reach new markets with influencers and decision makers It is more important than ever to connect those in search of solutions with solution providers like you. From C-level executives to traffic management engineers, our attendees will come ready to learn about your company, make purchasing decisions, and influence transportation legislation.

INTELLIGENT TRANSPORTATION SOCIETY OF AMERICA The Intelligent Transportation Society of America (ITS America) was established in 1991 as a not-for-profit organization to foster the use of advanced technologies in surface transportation systems. We are the leading advocate for technologies that improve the safety, security and efficiency of the nation's surface transportation system. The formation of ITS America was motivated by the recognition that while numerous existing organizations were actively involved in transportation issues, no single organization existed to focus exclusive attention on emerging technologies. Our members include private corporations, public agencies, and academic institutions involved in the research, development and design of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) technologies that enhance safety, increase mobility, and sustain the environment.
