We Move Communities

APTA Transform & EXPO October 4 - 7  |  Chicago, IL  |  Booth #1061 

At APTA Transform & EXPO, see how people and technology come together to make transit safer, smarter and more connected for all.

What Makes the Journey Possible

Public transit moves more than riders. It moves communities forward. Every day, millions of people rely on transit to get to work, school, healthcare, family, and everything in between. Behind every journey are the people and technology working together to keep those communities connected.

At Booth 1061, we’re celebrating the people who keep transit moving and exploring how technology can make their work easier.

Connect. Experience. Support.

Everyone has a story, and we'd love to hear yours. We're celebrating the people who make public transportation possible and we invite you to stop by and become part of our Community.

 

  • Experience the CEO Exchange led by INIT CEO Carl Commons. These executive conversations will explore the challenges impacting transit communities and how leaders are responding.
  • Share your story by taking a Polaroid and adding it to our community wall. Help us celebrate the people who keep transit moving.
  • Vote for a local cause. Help choose amongst three Chicago-area charities for a distributed $10,000 donation from INIT.
